21.3 (published 2026.09.23)
- Editing a tournament, source or annotator doubled its number of games in the list ( CBH format ).
- Databases written by an older version could report "Liberror TimeControl" when replacing a game.
- Integrity check: repairing such a database could destroy its player library ( 2CBH format ).
- PGN: a player name containing a colon was read as two players, an annotator containing a slash as two annotators.
