    Very nice program...
    a suggestion...
    I can select an engine as an external engine and the program shows me the engine version installed ...
    very nice and helpful!
    But if I update the engine to a new version, I should be able to update the engine name that is shown to me

    I tried making tactics training from my own game. But some tactics have more than five moves. Is there a way to make tactics that have 1 to 4 moves only?

      Not directly, you can edit the files generated (in the folder of the program, UsrData subfolder, Personal trainings, , with Notepad and edit the line of the tactic (second group of |)and remove moves not needed.

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. At the beginning there are quite a few errors, but less and less. To mark the Board a transparent window is launched that occupies the desk and lets see the PDF and select a position. 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...
