Ugh, it seems that we have incorrect order. The instruction which sets default ecoFIle was moved and landed after options file loading. So scid loads ecoFile from options, then overwrites this variable with default ;-) Workaround: symlink (or copy) your eco file in <scid-share-dir>/data (after all, make install puts eco file just there, you had to do sth special to avoid it ;-)) Likely patch: split options handling out of start.tcl into separate file (say load_options.tcl or sth like that) and modify Makefile.conf so instead of TCLS= \ tcl/start.tcl \ tcl/config.tcl \ it reads TCLS=\ tcl/start.tcl\ tcl/config.tcl\ tcl/load_options.tcl\ (sorry, I do not have time to write it and test today). PS The only true change was from set ecoFile "/usr/local/share/scid/scid.eco" to set ecoFile [file join [file join $scidShareDir "data"] "scid.eco"] ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
