Previous/Next Game & Comments #498

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
It is rather cumbersome to have to reopen a file and select a game from a
PGN which has more than one game in it.  If there were  "Next Game" and
"Previous Game" buttons (my preference) or a menu items, that would greatly
ease the use of such files.

Also, PGN files sometimes have comments in them - for example, if they are
exercises, or annotated games.  I for one, would love to see a simple
window/sidepanel to view these.

I started to implement all these features in database branch, but have little 
time
later to roll on. I hope it will be ready for the next major release.

I restarted the database work again in gbtami-database clone here:
http://code.google.com/r/gbtami-database/source/checkout

It uses sqlalchemy to easy the work. The new stuff are in lib/pychess/Database/ 
and in lib/pychess/Savers/database.py
At this moment it can import .pgn files using import.py in Database dir., and 
then pychess can open games pointing to ~/.locale/share/pychess/pychess.pdb
Game's movelist now stored as arrays of low level int moves (2 byte/move), and 
comments as unicode text, separated with "|".
Of course these are just experiments, nothing in stone yet.
Any suggestion are welcome.

It can import .pgn files from .pgn/.zip/directory starting with --import-pgn 
option.
Added a new "Open database" to Game menu.
Entering player name to simple gtk completion entry can filter the gamelist.
