Rework the search's hideable Flag-Options a little. (Move the Delete Flag, and add a few buttons (and doco) to mass set the User/Custom flags.
Fix up the Header Search global options, and search save/load.
Show custom flags as *lowercase* letters in the gamelist.
opening trainer patch update
Custom flags now show the first descriptive letter (if any) in the gamelist instead of \[1-6\].
Ok, I have emailed Dinesh. Perhaps we can/should include this feature. Anyone else interested in testing it, pls email me directly. Cheers Steven
Ooops - Add chinese to our unix 'configure' script.
I don't think si5 support will ever happen. Too hard to code and destabilising, and not so desirable for me. Perhaps one day someone will code it, but it's a huge task i think.
The GPL is not explicitly incompatible with money. But Steam and Scid do not seem a good idea to me, for a few reasons.
Seed random number generator (for tree training).
Maybe it was a misunderstanding. When you just restart the training you get different variations. But when you close scidvspc and start it again, you get the same openings in exact the same order. I think you may be right.

Hmmm... Seems to work for me, though computers are bad at random numbers. But it's probably weighted random. Maybe pure random move would be more desirable?

Mike - the piece ID codes for White and Black promotions are different, as follows:
Ok, i see Fulvio has fixed it on Scid. Maybe someone can port this (preferably without the C++20 - isms. I can't test it on my system , for some reason there is no bug here. -rw-rw-r-- 1 steve 817 Nov 4 21:46 Bjørn Dæhlie vs Ådne Søndrål.pgn
Can find any file operation (such as create a database, or any export feature) that does successfully write to such a filename ? If so, i can identify/debug or possibly modify the pgn write routine.

Mike's support for k4it.de online Nalimov (6 piece) tablebases. These are nearly identical to Shredders online bases (which are currently offline/broke due to some backend 421 Misdirected Request / Nginx) but with minor changes.

Thanks for posting Why is it requiring Tk 8.5 when the source says it needs 8.6? Any thoughts on how to fix? The exact requirements are 8.5 or 8.6. (which is better/ubiquitous). I only added the 8.6 note to the source as wish 9 has been released, but it is not compatible anymore (Scidvspc needs much work afaics to work with 9). Cheers

Show proper timecontrol when base time is fractional (most likely small).
Minor tweaks, including better 'sc_game new' in tacgame, sergame.

Nasty, but we have to process custom player photos after spellcheck init. Hmmm...
Add Hanish's patches, and links in README.
The problem was you are making a photo for an aliased player name (which is not easy/possible to know about). This should be fixed with commit 3564. Otherwise, have a look in spelling.ssp and change your player's name to an unaliased one.

Handle custom photos for aliased player names. Also change space handling in player names (remove all spaces, not just first two, but may affect some engine names/photos).

I can't reproduce this issue with stockfish 15.1 and current subversion scidvspc. Try stockfish 15, disabling NNUE. I'd rather not have to mess around with PITA stockfish.

Do your engines support 960? We send "setoption name UCI_Chess960 value true" by default in the patch. Have a look in your engine's log for UCI_Chess960 Stockfish should support it, but most others will not i'm guessing. Make sure to do a "make clean" too.
