Pascal, You and Alex are painting me in a corner and it's not a nice thing to do. Give me admin rights and you won't hear any blabla anymore. That way, I won't take your precious time over a thing you certainly don't want to know nothing about. --

Alex, Scid ain't a chess program : you don't play against Scid. It contains a database, some chess programs and some other fancy tools. So what is it ? I don't want to have to rewrite all the synonyms I invent for that after finishing writing ! I don't want us to talk past each other here : I
