Hi,
is there any chance that the LaTeX export will be modernized? It looks to me as
if it's still stuck in the 1990s!
E.g. diagrams got exported like:
\begin{diagram}
\board{ *B* * *}
{P K * * }
{ * * * *}
{* *q* * }
{k* * * *}
{* * * * }
{ P * * *}
{* * * * }
\end{diagram}
One better version would be (so that modern Opentype fonts could typeset it):
XIIIIIIIIY
8-+L+-+-+0
7zP-mK-+-+-0
6-+-+-+-+0
5+-+q+-+-0
4k+-+-+-+0
3+-+-+-+-0
2-zP-+-+-+0
1+-+-+-+-0
xabcdefghy
And also game information is badly formatted (and outdated).
It would be great to have a more styled formatting with clear output of
players, site, event, year etc.
------------------------------------------------------------
I also noticed that errors appear when importing a PGN file that contains data
before 1000. E.g. I have a study database with studies from arabs like Al Adli
dating back to year 863! Maybe the PGN is wrong? [Date "863.??.??"] should it
be [Date "0863.??.??"]?
I am also interested in your opinion on how best to treat games or studies that
have more than one player on one side. For example, in consultation games or
studies with several composers.
Thanks in advance!
Yours,
Ulrich Dirr
