Is there any technical specification of the si4 database format used by Scid and Scid forks? Or do I have to reverse-engineer by looking at the sourcecode?
I could only find http://scid.sourceforge.net/help/Formats.html and http://scidvspc.sourceforge.net/doc/Formats.htm
but both don't really help for implementing...

Re: Scid (si4) File Format
If you want that exact format, then just use the existing code to read and write it (giving credit where credit is due, of course).dkl wrote:Is there any technical specification of the si4 database format used by Scid and Scid forks? Or do I have to reverse-engineer by looking at the sourcecode?

If you want to modify it, then you are going to have to study it carefully anyway.
