    1. I need the contents of the file bug.log in the folder of the program, this may help me, since I have not been able to replicate the problem on my computer.

  4. Hello there,

    Was testing your prog as I am planning to create Youtube-videos with your prog as the interface. There is a small problem though as I was not able to set sounds on? Any suggestions?

    Greetings Jani

    1. Hi,
      If you want sounds, better way is to assign custom sounds from Options, for instance, add ding.wav to "After rival move".

Future version 10 step 05: Scanner of positions

Some days ago Juan Carlos Antón, head of UNED chess school , does give me permission to include tactical positions from the PDFs on the downloads of UNED web, which I consider very educational. The problem is there is no possibility of obtaining  original fens. The solution to ease my work, has been to create something like an OCR of image positions, which at this specific case is working very well. Only three concepts are handled : mark, deduce, and learn. First, mark the board, the next step is to deduce, if there are errors the user corrects them manually and asked the program to learn from them.

It is selected with the mouse by dragging a corner to the other, and it is fitted with the arrow keys. At the end the Enter key is pressed to accept the selected and continue in the program wi...
