[Bug-gnubg] Importing "pdb" format

[Gabi at HotPOP]

The following site has several interesting positions is a proprietary format:

I would like to import these files into gnubg.

 

1) Can someone add this "pdb" format to the supported formats that can be imported?  I don't know yet how to do it myself :-(

 

2) I tried to use existing formats to import these files, and found the following problems:

2.1) When I specified "BKG Session", the import didn't succeed, but NO MESSAGE WAS SHOWN, as if it was fine.  This is a bug.

2.2) Other formats failed as well (as expected), but each showed a different error message.  I would expect some consistency here…

 

3) It would be nice if gnubg could automatically recognize the format of each imported file.  I imported files from several places and in several formats, and I don't always remember which file is in which format.  This automatic format recognition seems to me an easy task.

 

Thank you,

Gabi Shahar.
