I can display a text-based chess board on the console (looks better with 
a mono font).

With feedback from this list, I had to break a lot of bad Java habits to 
make the code more Pythonic. Right now I'm going back and forth between 
writing documentation and unit tests. Once I finalized the code in its 
current state, I'll post it up on GitHub under the MIT license. Future 
updates will have a fuller console interface and moves for individual 
pieces implemented.

Thank you,

Chris R.
