Dear Dr Kirkby,
I am, as I told you, mostly an user. Whatever small programs I write
are for my personal research and it is of rarely of use to most people
in the world and I would feel flattered if anyone would want to copy
my miserable code, and other people's lack of originality is not a

Well, it's the first time I here about it, but I have ideas (although I am
really surprised because I did not call sc_epd in my changes :
'grep sc_epd tcl/tools/*' gives no result ... )
1. Don't issue a make install, run scid from the compilation dir;
2. You have scid already installed, and there
Hi,
I tried downloading this version as I am particularly interested in
the Blunder checking and Training.
I couldn't find any linux binary packages (debian in particular in my
case) so I downloaded the source and compiled it. I got no configure
or make errors.
But when I try some of the new feat

I looked an GUI for setting up UCI engine. While having internal UCI support
is great, I think the GUI is a bit too much for most users.
My suggestion:
Put important functions (common for most UCI engines) in configuration window.
I think:
* Hash
* OwnBook
* MultiPV
are most important.
Hi,
I think Scid follows the same rule as any software : 20% of the
functions are used 80% of the time.
For example, I added several functions to Scid, among them "Tactics" and
"Tactical Game". They belong to the first 20% given the great feedback I
get.
On the other hand the "opening trainer

This is because of this I had to find a workaround : even for the mate
exercises I could not put the solution because it is far from unique. So

It is easy to find some examples, but not that much. And PGNs with solutions

I think it should stop Pascal. I do not want another round. Just leave

Let us both shut about about this issue.

Dear Dr Kirkby,
I am merely an user of Scid, and would like to ignore this daily
mudslinging, if it had not turned into such a daily deluge. I am
trying to take an impartial view. I know neither you or Pascal, and I
do not follow the details of your history - I give my personal work

Betting ahead of myself there. I mean 15th December 2006 of course.

Hi,
I added 2 opening books to Scid (gm2600 and elo2400), that are useful
along the tree window and for analysis.
I quickly generated these books, and better ones may (must ?) exist.
I asked on newsgroups, but got no useful reply so far (even if I appreciated the
arguing of someone about books so
You are 100 % about GPL, and I will of course stick with it.

Pascal, David,
Now, enough has been said.
Everybody know you won't work together.
Everybody know your both positions.
Everybody can make its own opinion.
So, please, please, stop it.
If you have constructive things to send to the list(s), do it.
Otherwise, do it private, or better don't do it.
What D kirkby wrote at SF is worth reading :-)
Strange he does not mention all of it here.
Here is my answer :
Hi,
There are some lies in D Kirkby objections :
- on Scid-users mailing lists some people said I was the better placed for a

Hi Pascal,
it´s a pity that no friendly resolution of a useless conflict is possible.
That obviously can´t be helped for the moment. Sometimes minds just don´t fit,
even bright ones.
But it will be hard to prevent _anybody_ from using your code if you stick to
GPL. And if you go away from GPL
