Hi Alexander, I'd like to continue this thread a bit, after the delay.

Just a heads up that Drag & Drop from the Finder doesn't seem to work, on my setup anyway. I tried dragging a PGN file from the Finder to a number of places on the main Scid Window (?), without success. Double-clicking the file does work (after setting Scid as the default app for PGNs, of course). And, see note below on Scid's File-Open menu item. >>once I open the Scid "MyGames" database the PGN seems to >>disappear from Scid. > >open Database Switcher... You should have two bases n >parallel in two different slots. OK, I see now. The database switcher can show Scid databases AND pgn databases, and, within the switcher, you can drag a PGN database to a Scid database. Perfect. There might be a little bug (or feature request?): I can open a file in Scid by double-clicking it in the Finder (but not dragging it, as mentioned, above), BUT Scid's File-Open menu item dialog Disables PGNs in its list of files - so there seems to be No Way to open a PGN from within Scid. I hope these reports are useful to the contributors.
