Separate databases are better for this, I think, as those are likely to contain positions, not games.
>Or those latest could belong to the ref DB with specific tags ? As for tags, the feaure I miss very much is custom tags, preferably with tree-like classification, such as (for tactical database): Mate combination --- Q+N --- R+R Endgame tactics ---- Promotion ---- Mate ---- Stalemate etc. Perhaps this can be done via separate file? >I don't know how to manage that, but this is certainly really useful for >users (and I am an user). If only we could have a 1200 games base like CT >Art 3 for tactical training ! >Related to this what is the status of the mate in N moves bases I generated >from real games ? Mate in 1 is useful as separate training database. Probably other mate databases are not so useful (you don't need to find mate in N in your game, it is enough to see forced mate). And I would prefer having player names too there. -- Michal Rudolf ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Check out the new SourceForge.net Marketplace.
