`skak` and `xskak`. Command `continuevariationcurrent` causes compilation error under `xskak`












0















I understand package xskak to be an extension of skak, but that there are some incompatibilities due to overlaps in funcionality. I would like to work with xskak in the long term, but hoped to be able to include pure skak code while getting there. Compiling skak code under xskak seemed to go well until I came across Torben Hoffmann's Example of the LaTeX-input and output of an annotated chess game using skak.sty dated January 8, 2018. The command continuevariationcurrent causes a ! Paragraph ended before FenBoard was complete error.
