Hi Steven,

I was hoping for replies from you and Joost :)

Thanks for that template for doing it the right way.  Your idea is clear but 
I'm not handy enough with Scid concepts yet to know how to implement it.   I 
will file it for future work.

Fantastic. That works.  Thank you.  Its exciting.
Unfortunately it crashes here after a few moves.  I'll investigate later.

Thanks for prototyping it.

Ah, very useful.  Thank you.

Steven, I, for one, appreciate your continued work on Scid, and your passion is 
refreshing.  I don't know the full history of the split between Scid and Scid 
vs. PC/Mac but I hope the two can somehow merge one day with the benefits of 
both.  Scid vs Mac seems to have a Mac friendlier interface to me, but its 
missing the Score All Moves in the Annotation (as we've discussed).  Now that 
I've gotten my hands dirty maybe I can help implement that.

All the best,

Steve
