And some of us who do have PC's don't like MS either: I've used my
NicBase under Linux dosemu for a long time with absolutely no problems.
I'd be, however, quite interested in native Linux chess database. Is
there such a program? I know Xboard can do something but I'd rather
have a program which uses binary gamefile format so the searches would
be faster. Is there or must I really shake rust off my programming skill?
