One minor point, if I may. TWIC is a sponsored website. Their "business 
model" relies on some advertisement they place on their website. Mark 
made it pretty clear to me when I asked  if we should build some 
autodownload right into Scid that this could cause him quite some 
headaches if people do not visit the site itself anymore as his sponsor 
actually watches for the page accesses.

I think it's in the interest of all those interested in Chess not to 
erode TWICs business model. It would be a loss for the game, indeed.

That's why I'd like to point out to you to keep using the web page to 
fetch the PGN files there.
