IMHO it makes sense for the releases to set all files to this revision as it makes it very easy to check out a specific version >> would meet the requiremet of easy configuration.

So we'll live with shelling out till someone has a better idea :) Consider that done.

SchemingMind and some others do, there seems ot be some ChessBase revision/version/patch to add it to CB9. From the stuff itself I consider it important and it solves some problems one has with cmail. >> 2. XML would be of interest in several parts of scid. Any >> implementation of XPath in TCL?

Don't look into it, I've already done it in my internal version of scid. I'm currently testing it and I'll check it into the cvs as soon as I've removed the principle bugs (if any; it's built upon my XFCC-support for xboard that works pretty well). You just might prefer all in native TCL, so I'd have to recode two small helpers. Hope that this is as easy in TCL as it is in Perl. (About 50 lines of perl each.) I would appreciate though if we could generate a "Play"-Menue (call it whatever). The Tools menue gets a bit long and IMHO also some restructuring would do it some good. "Start First/Second Engine" e.g. IMHO does not to have such a prominent place as one uses the hotkey anyway. Probably on CE. But I think all Training functions should go to some "Play" menue, I could add Correspondence Chess there which involves some items. -- Kind regards, Alexander Wagner Universitaetsbibliothek Ilmenau Langewiesener Str. 37 98693 Ilmenau Tel.: 03677/69-4521 , Fax.: 03677/69-4617 ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
