How did you proceed, for clarity's sake?
Well, that really a two part question :)
To create the database I used DownLoadThemAll! (a Firefox extension) to
down load all of the TWIC zip files at one time. Then I used 7-zip to
extract all of the files to a temp folder. I appended all of the files
together using an MS-DOS command.
On linux i use this little script:
#!/bin/sh
FIRST="$1"
LAST="$2"
while [ $FIRST -le $LAST ]; do
URL="http://www.chesscenter.com/twic/zips/twic${FIRST}g.zip";
wget $URL -nv 2>>wget-twic.log
let FIRST=FIRST+1
done
unzip \*.zip
rm *.zip
ALLFILE="twic${1}-${LAST}"
cat *.pgn > $ALLFILE
rm *.pgn
mv "$ALLFILE" "${ALLFILE}.pgn"
Then SCID was used to spell check, update ECO and find duplicates. See
attached for the options I used to find the duplicates.
That's the annoying part: thanks for your work!
