Sorry to have been lurking this whole time, I didn't really have
anything to bring to the discussion of the last week...
I'd like to see improvements to FICS play. These days I mainly use
SCID to watch GM games on FICS, and it's quite annoying there is no
proper games list. It'd be nice to have a

The full ICOFY db is split into about 5 files listed a-e. The total should

I use the ICOFY database as a starting point, then get it more up to date
using all the weekly pgn files from The Week In Chess archives. I am
currently on my phone so its difficult to give you the urls, but ICOFY is on
Sourceforge. Google them. Both are free by the way. The end result is about

Could anyone kindly tell me what the two bars in the tactical game

Sorry to resurrect this... I've found that skak comes in the Fedora

Hi everyone,
I'm making a switch to Fedora and am experimenting with a virtual machine
before I make the plunge when Fedora 13 comes out. Scid works fine (as far
as I can see), which is great, but I can't find an RPM for the chess12 font,
meaning the tex files for such as the opening reports are r
ases, like http://chessopeningsdatabase.com/

Apologies I forgot to send this to all.
Magnus, I have found the problem. You need to restart SCID to pick up the
new database type.
Also, it appears you don't have to flag games to get the Opening Trainer to
work, but it does make it better.

Hello,
Once again, well done on a fantastic piece of software. SCID is easily my

Hi guys,
I can't seem to work out how to resign from a serious game against the
computer (i.e. Rybka). I click "abort" which ends the game, but the PGN
isn't being marked as a win for the computer. I've looked at the F1 help,
and the help on the net, as well as searching through the mailiing lists

I had this same problem, copying over the ICOFY database in the Database

successfully after 4 or 5 tries. I now have a full ICO
