Hi folks, It's February 3, 2009 and the latest Scid release version is 4.2.2.
Sorry to ask a question I'm sure has been asked before but I searched the
archives and the last query I found was in 2007.
SCID is a super nice chess data base but as far as I can tell it's lacking
support for chess960 (aka Fischer Random). This is a shame (for me) as I
strictly play this variant online and I'd like to able to archive and analyze
the games using SCID.
So my 2 questions: Is chess960 support a goal of the developers? Is it in the
works already? If both answers are no then I'll consider attempting on my own
private fork. I'd be happy to contribute to the project but I doubt my
programming skill-set is advanced enough.
PS seems like polyglot and numerous UCI engines understand it already.
Thanks for listening -- mdr
