2009-02-19 Thread Israel Chauca Fuentes
Wey need to populate the default engines list with correct values, otherwise the users just find that Scid is broken (analysis, serious game, etc. don't work). So, I modified the code for the default engine list, would something like this work? (I don't like the "folder names" part, maybe

2009-02-19 Thread Alexander Wagner
Hi! Seems strange, but could it be that Scid "looses" some keys? E.g. if I start up Scid, two windows open up: the main window and the PGN window. The PGN window has the focus. If I now press CTRL-F12 to open the CC window together with the default database, the CC window opens up, but without

Thanks Alexander! I will try your /local/opt/tmp/stuff suggestion. As to your closing remark: Sure enough, but I meant to ask whether there are any other troubles when using scid that are caused by tcl/tk 8.5 flaws. Or is the file selection dialog the only one (as far as you guys have noticed; t

Beware about Etcl : it is the Tcl runtime used for Scid Pocket, but don't use it under Linux or other OS, or you will get libc conflicts at runtime. I just mentioned Etcl as an example (and because it is a french product :-) ). Pascal ---

This part of Scid needs more corrections than that. For example : - triggering a players'name correction makes Scid enter in calculation mode without any user feedback (and this lasts a couple of minutes) - the limit of corrections should be user defined (a drop down list with "1000", "1", "100
