SYNOPSIS

DESCRIPTION

       This  manual page documents briefly Shanes Chess Information Database.
       This manual page was written  for  the  Debian  GNU/Linux  distribution
       because  the original program does not have a manual page. It does have
       documentation   in   a   README   file,   which   is    available    as
       /usr/share/doc/scid/README.gz.    It    also    has    extensive   HTML
       documentation,         which          is          available          at
       /usr/share/doc/scid/html/Index.html.

       Scid  is a chess database application. With it you can browse databases
       of chess games, edit games and search for games  by  various  criteria.
       Scid  uses  it own compact and fast database format, but can convert to
       and from PGN.

       The command ’scid’ starts the graphical user interface.
