BanksiaGUI is a freeware chess Graphical User Interface.
Changes v 0.55:
Network engines can be used for ECA and Analyse
Analyze to find blunders
Graphs: curve lines (smooth curved lines – good for eyes); line areas
Test positions/suites: can work with multi laps
Clock: could show scores/comments (to be easier to watch them); more choices for their locations
Engine’s configuration tooltips: show changed values
Default folder for engines: it is a sub-folder “engines” in the program folder. When starting BSG will auto-check and install/remove if it founds any engines/missing in that folder
Update Score indicator on the fly
MultiPV arrows
Show arrows for threatening moves
Board preview: show with a move list
Drop opening books to BSG: a popup for selecting tasks: view, install to normal games or tournament games
Paste a FEN: auto detect if it is standard or chess 960
Databases:
Support EPD files in both formats of text (.epd) and SQLite (.epd.db3). If the input is a text one, BSG will auto convert it into an internal SQL database. Users could view them in tables, watch their chessboards, and query with SQL, or with PQL statements. EPD files (both text and database) could be quickly dragged-dropped into BSG to show
Use only one viewer to view all different database types: OCGDB, PGN, EPD (for game databases), OOBS, and Polyglot (for opening books). All functions/actions should be more consistent
Export databases into PGN/EPD or other databases
Could setup limit sizes for PGN files (for easier previewing large PGN/EPD files)
Tree view for OCGDB databases
OOBS (Open Opening Book Standard): could be queried by PQL
Improve PQL to work with patterns and tolerance numbers
Improve speed for generating PGN/EPD opening books
All database types and features can work with chess 960 too
