Winboard and gnu chess came together in a package and winboard has the same gui interface for both. You can save games you play against the computer and view PGN games but so far I can only see the games played out in movie fasion and then you can scroll back/forwards move by move. The move is shown in algebraic notation at the top of the screen, but what I'm after is to get a printout/text file, in algerbraic notation, of the entire game, in the same way you would see one in a magazine. > If you're looking for a way to get a formatted score from the PGN > game, try some more advanced PGN viewer. ChessBase Light (demo from > www.chessbase.com) might be able to do it. OK, you have given me a few ideas to try here, thanks. Sent via Deja.com http://www.deja.com/ Share what you know.
