Re: [Scidvspc-users] Engine arrows

2019-06-22 Thread Jerome Monscavoir 
Hello all,

Both are great
In my opinion arrow(s) on the main board *only for one selected engine* (to
simplify the dev.) is/are great
Multiple arrows (one by runnig engine) need to set or chose colors.

For example in Arena i use only one arrow for one engine

In the way shown in attached : one by tab is also good

Great idea

Thanks

Regards

Re: [Scidvspc-users] Scid vs PC 4.20

2019-04-08 Thread Jerome Monscavoir 
Hello,

I get a question, under Linux (not Wine) in 4.20, it seems that "suggested
move feature" (clic on selected location give a possible move) seems
disabled or removed ?
I try to look inside documentation and option menu on move part but i don't
see anything to re-activate it

In my opinion it is a very interesting feature when you play blitz on line
on FICS

Regards

Re: [Scidvspc-users] Using Leela-chess (LcZero) engine in scidvspc in Linux :hard to start the engine

2018-05-14 Thread Jerome Monscavoir 
Hello,

The link (*CPU* version) for a binary package is here :
I include also the tests and a needed working tested weight file

https://drive.google.com/file/d/1kEq-A6cRv9xICe98RtLwZP-f-iGDDI3f/view?usp=sharing

my system is :

UTC 2018 x86_64 x86_64 *x86_64* GNU/Linux

let me know if it is working or not

In my opinion a delay (like in Chess Arena) could be needed to give delay
to engine to start "*additional delay during engine start phase*"

2018-05-14 Thread Jerome Monscavoir 
Do you realize that you are sarcistic and insulting ? so what do you expect
in return ? love word ?

Please do not send me any value judgement about here on the list : it is a
fault
Use unstead private channel to insult me of give judgement value

Please send usefull explanation about my "ignorance"  Please be more clear
: what i ignore ?

Is there something you don't understand in my mail ?
You don't understand about what i mean when i use "binary" word ?

Or do you simply judging people about there level value in english ? if it
is the case you need some help

Do you think your remark 'ignorance" is a usefull here for any constructive
thing here ?

[Scidvspc-users] 4.17 startup Error on Ubuntu 16.04 after make

2016-10-29 Thread Jerome Monscavoir 
Hello all,

I get the 4.16 installed version on my system, i want to try the 4.17 prior
to set it completely, so i did a make (not make install) and if i try to
start it from terminal, i get the spash screen and the this :

Error in startup script: bad menu entry index "CorrespondenceChess"
while executing
"$menu entryconfig $entry -label $menuLabel($lang,$tag)  -underline
$menuUnder($lang,$tag)"
(procedure "configMenuText" line 4)
invoked from within
"configMenuText .menu.play [tr $tag $oldLang] $tag $lang"
(procedure "setLanguageMenus" line 7)
invoked from within
"setLanguageMenus $lang"
(procedure "setLanguage" line 47)
invoked from within
"setLanguage E"
invoked from within
"if {[catch {
  setLanguage $language
}]} {
  setLanguage E
}"
(file "./scid" line 150340)



is this could be linked with the already presence of the 4.16 version in
many install folder ?
