Right. But you write them with the evaluation, not? Probably
one could normalise the writing of the comment there?

I see the problem. Probably if the score comment looks
something like this "Score: +1.35 (A) +1.27 (B)"?

Jepp. But thats now the case also if the engine is within
the book, not?

This would ease up things as well. Then I could place
something like DS11 there.

Definitively ;)

You've a strong point here. Agree.

Agree, here I stumbled across the missing "clean game" that
removes both. ;)

Sound resonable.

Hm, unfortunately I'm not in tcl/tk but maybe you could
give me a hint where it lives maybe I'll understand what's
going on there.
