Hmmm... my idea is interesting, but it needs some work. And sometimes engines throw up misconceived Mate lines too: 5R1k/8/7B/4p2p/pq6/4N3/6R1/6K1 b - - 5 56 1 [+5.21] 56. ... Kh7 (0.00) 2 [M2] 56. ... Kh7 57. Rg7+ Kxh6 58. Nf5# (0.01) 2 [+11.79] 56. ... Qxf8 57. Bxf8 h4 58. Kh2 h3 59. Kxh

Very interesting, i didn't suppose that the engine can output so many info that scid get stucked simply parsing it. However "update idletasks" don't solve the problem. The point is that fileevents have higher priority than idletasks, so "update idletasks" refresh the GUI (not new user events) bu

Hmmm. I'm not so sure about the analysis changes and near mate positions - the patch seems to perform worse than before. Try this position 2Q1qk1r/2p5/8/8/8/6P1/6K1/5R2 b - - 0 5 , bring up stockfish and press "add move" till the end. --
