ScidPocket is a chess database software. It is the port of Scid for PC (bases are compatible between PC and Pocket).
In order to run ScidPocket, you need a Pocket PC (Pocket 2002 is not supported) with an ARM processor and a VGA, or a QVGA screen (the later is not well tested). Only tested with WM5 (Dell Axim x51v), but Pocket 2003 should also work.
ScidPocket requires a lot of memory (if you want to open big databases), and it is highly recommended to close all other applications before running it.
As Scid Pocket needs latest Tcl/Tk 8.5, it is mandatory to use a version of eTcl newer than rc24.
Until now, implemented features (non exhaustive list):
- Engine analysis, with the display of up to four best lines.
- Board setup.
- Load/save of Scid bases.
- Opening books.
- Several bases can be opened with the possibility to switch between them. - Import of PGN files and export of Scid bases to PGN files.
- Game navigation with variations handling (tap and hold generates a right click in PGN window, triggering the same contextual menu as in Scid).
- Search (position, header, material & patterns). All Scid search features are available..
- Opening tree (stats related to current opened base).
- Engine tournament (several engines are available in installation package).
- Play on internet (freechess.org also known as FICS).
- Automatic game annotation by engine.
- Novag Citrine external board (trough Bluetooth).
