This is described in the extended PGN notation document, which linked to in my first mail about this item. This extension is created by people from ChessBase, Chess Assistant, DGT and others. Although is seems to be a proposal, it is widely used within the computer chess programs and databases. > >> 2) Annotate time for all the moves is a very boring task. > > One should keep in mind that in real game play you might > already get the time stamps from a digital clock or, in > Scids game play functions by the internal clock. In OTB, FIDE rules, your allowed to add the time on your notation form. Most players I know who do add the clock time to their notation, don't do it for every move but every fifth or tenth move. > For external time sources input engine comes to mind again, > e.g. I store timings from a DGT clock right into the > notation.
