Re: [Scid-users] Strange Scid death

[pgeorges <pas...@fr...>]

That's strange, I made some test and find no problem on windows XP. As 
you're talking about HTML export and appending to a file, I suppose you 
use the "old" htlm export function, not HTML + JS. The code that 
generates HTML is done in C/C++, which I did not touch. On the other 
hand the code for HTML+JS is 100% Tcl/Tk.
Do you meet the same behavior with different PGN files ?

I find it weird the crash happens when browsing directories. I just 
exported 20.700 games (!) to HTML+JS under windows XP without problem.

Regarding debugging, on Windows, I can't do much.
