You're running the last stable version (4.0) right? Not any of the cvs versions, ie. you do not compile Scid yourself? Then I can absolutely understand the problem and it should be solved in current cvs, indeed. > I found out that you have to click the letters beside the icons not the > icons themselves. The icons do nothing. This is fixed thanks to a pointer form Pascal in current cvs. > The FIDE link is the only one that comes up in English (I can't read > German). Is there any way to get English equivalents? I've added NLS for this in current cvs as well. That is from 4.1 onwards you'll end up on an english page if it exists. Also there was a change at Wikipedia, that is why you come up at this strange page that is indeed not where you ever wanted to go. They switched off an important resolver tool at de.wikipedia.org. Unfortunately, changes @wikipedia are out of the scope of our project. In current code I moved to a resolver that should be much more reliable as it is hosted by a german library consortium and used there within their own catlogues. Two options here: you wait for 4.1 to be released or you compile Scid yourself. The latter would be great as we could then see if I actually resolved all pending troubles. Probably, someone here on the list could provide a scid built for Windows against the current cvs? -- Kind regards, / War is Peace. | Freedom is Slavery.
