So cool !

Hi there,

after so many years I helped Martin with Arena I am looking with other eyes in GUIs.
CuteChess is really a very strong software, most important features are inside.

I will give my thanks for such a amazing software.

Thank you!

Best
Frank

with one summary report with all games using bayeselo
( Note: this was just a test at very quick tc as a 'proof of concept', treat the results below as meaningless)

Surely interrupt/resume tournament will be one of them.
