Typing in the location of each piece is a pain in the butt.  Also, people have
thousands of these positions collected, and this is more compact yet
human-decipherable.

Forsyth notation (what FEN is based on) has been used for over a hundred years.
You'll get used to it. :-)

Maybe someone else will provide it, but I think you should just try to read it.
I explained it in my last post, it's very easy.  Start at a8 and go across, then
down.
