    1. There is a bug when a player is selected, when some alias are indicated these are not taken into account. I'll fix it when more bugs comes along.

    2. The database statistics looks very nice. Yes there are some issues with alias. But overall very nice feature.

  2. I have done some testing and so far it is working good. You don't know how powerful Lucas is for training. I looked at stats generated in Lucas from my chess.com games and so amazing what useful information about my game. Some of the openings I thought I was good at but apparently not and the other way round. Also looking at stats for players like GM Carlsen and other GMs gave me insights into their strengths, weaknesses and their frequently played openings. Thank you Lucas.

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...
