Hi, all,

I am trying to normalize a Scid database. It contains many local
players who don't appear on FIDE's rating list and many different
spellings for the names (one or two surnames, capital letters, the
name before the surname, etc), because different people have
transcribed the games.

What I'm doing is:

* Export the database to a pgn file
* Run a little shell script to get all the names sorted alphabetically
* Create a spelling.ssp file using the previous list, which I do manually
* Apply the spelling procedure to the Scid database

I was wondering if there is a better way to approach the task. Any ideas?

Saludos.
Gerardo.
