2007-05-28 Thread Marcin Kasperski
Well, minor annoyance, but... It would be nice to have some keyboard shortcut, which 'just saves' the current game. By 'just saves' I mean what most people usually mean while saving document, game, whatever: if there were previous version, replace it, if not, save it as sth new. So one can pres

Hi, If you compiled Scid by yourself, there should be a scidt file in Scid directory if you type "make scidt", as scidt is not compiled by default. Pascal Cory Helfrich a écrit : > Hello, > > When I tried to save a modified game in one of my databases, I > received the following message: > > B
