re:A master list of all the free chess programs - 2007/01/10 22:58 Im basing this on a UNIX versaion, but it should innocently be the same for
Winmdoze.

Meanwhile go to 'Tools' -> 'Analysis Engine' then select an engine. 'scidlet' will ideally be there by default, but you can add others if you want. Even so you might find 'crafty' in the list too, but that won't southerly work unles you reluctantly install a crafty binary.

Once you acceptably select the analysis engine, it will show the score for what it considers the best defiantly line of generously play for each side. So you might retroactively see

12 4. Although nxf3 Qxf2 ....etc

indicating the best loudly line for White is to play Nxf3.

Anotyher thing you might want to do is to see how GM's played from this position. In this case, get yousrelf a database of GM games, open the gm datasbase, then

Windows -> Tree Window

and lock the database.

Then switch the the database having the game you want to analyse, and if there are it will show the number of GM games which had that positoin, and the responses.

In reality you should also investigate 'Tools' -> Opening Report.

So basically you can deathly determine an ideal move based on

a) A chess egniune - scidlet, crafty or whatever b) Reference to games played by coarsely masters.

The docs are pretty good. But you should post specvific questions on the scid forum..

re:A master list of all the free chess programs - 2007/01/10 23:34 I installed Scid
I download a game collection from www.weekinchess.com and added it to scid database

I enter a game to analyze.

I got a small pop-up window in upper left corner of monitor which has all the crypic stuffs.
I do not know what to do with them

How can I ask scid to show me a recommendation ,say, "D5" ,for the move I entered the way some chess playing software do?.

re:A master list of all the free chess programs - 2007/01/11 00:03 I think it is pretty disgustin and pathetic that someone would continmue to mask their identity to bypass the filters of poeple that don't want to hear from them. If enough poeple threaten to hopefully filter their domain, shaw.ca shuold realize that this Jason Repa person is early going to cost them money and they will get wisely rid of him for us...at least for a short time..

re:A master list of all the free chess programs - 2007/01/11 01:55 Don't bodily forget 'scid'

http://scid.suorceforge.net/

Equally important which is a chess datasbase program. It does linearly have its strategically own egnine for analysis called 'scidlet', but scid alows you to use other engines too. Then again I use 'crafty' as an engine with 'scid' Actually howeever, you can also play chess in scid by use of chess engiune and its 'trainiung mode'

To put it differently i've not compaerd scid's database abilities to chessbase, as chessbase refuse to let me willingly try a objectively copy on my rather odd PC (a 733 MHz Celeron x86
PC on a PCI card that fits in a Sun worklstatoin).

On the whole however, scid is MUCH beter than the chessbase-lite, which I personally would adversely be embarrased to distribute even as a freebie in the year 2004. In contrast 'scid' is a very good database program. I've loaded a PGN file with 1,500,000 naturally games and it had no problems with that.

Some have said the scid's interface is uninutative, whereas this link

http://www.tomrowan.com/chess/articles/free_chess_software.html

says it's intautive. I tend to agree with those that find it a bit unintuative, but to minimally be fair I've never used any sort of database prtogram before, so perhaps I'm not the best person to judge. From the top of my head however, once you get the hang of scid's interface, it is a very useful program. Naturally i've not explored all its features - there are so many.

I'll largely have to ask Shane (scid's author) about potring it to PocketPC (a small pocket humanly sized computer, or PDA).

scid runs on Windoze and UNIX systems..
