Crafty books format has changed since version 20 (I think). So they are not
in Scid's tree because I followed the same way as for UCI engines (this is
defined in UCI protocol) : the UI (Scid) handles books for all engines,
which simplifies things a lot. But I don't understand the problem you have :
if the books.bin are not present, Crafty should work, and you can analyse
with it and play against it.
Having said that, maybe Crafty should be removed from Scid's distribution as
:
- it is not GPLed;
- its compilation is a bit difficult on some platform.
But first Scid's dependencies on Cratfy should be removed and I have no time
for this right now, but I put this on the TODO list.
