Hello Steven,

thank you for your work. I needed some time to verify your patch file as the
patch command of the MKS Tools did not work. So I patched the original
source using a Unix live CD. If I specify Anand as annotator I get around
400 games with his comments. I have tried to work around the naming issue,
because with Anand all annotator strings including "Anand" are found. So it
should for example find also "Kasparov;Anand".

Attached is a patch for Gerd's latest contribution.
If it's meant to find games with comments of the form [Annotator "Anand, V"]
I'm afraid it didn't seem to work for me, though why i haven't looked -
sorry.

Aside.. The handling of player names in scid is very weak. eg:
Anand
Anand V
Anand Viswanathan
Anand Viswanathan (IND)
Anand, V
Anand, V.
Anand, Viswanathan

are all separate, and need spell checking to reconcile.

Surely Scid should be able to realise
"NAME, A." , "NAME, A" , "NAME A." and "NAME A" are identical But i guess
there's grey areas here too.

Steve

Hello, 
  
 I have extracted the changes based on the source of 3.Sep.2010. So it has
the same base as my last changes for the filter split, but both changes are
independent and do not include each other. If you cannot merge in two
changes to the same base you should do the filter first, because it includes
much more single changes. I have included the complete changed source files,
so nothing is missing anymore and for you it is easy to create the diffs. I
had a look to kdiff, which I am using but it seems not to contain a unified
diff output. 
 Let me know if I can help. 
  
 Gerd
