What is this really?

• Window Docking feature
  - Different windows are docked/restored than Scid. Five layout slots
  with three custom layouts. Bug-fixes. F11 for fullscreen. Tcl-8.6.0 may
  have issues. Selectable Ttk themes (also for Gamelist).
  
  General
  
• Move search feature (eg 'h6 Bxh6')
  
• UCI: replace 'position fen ...' with 'position startpos moves ...' for general analysis
  
• Better Twin Games Checker - highlights missing comments and variations in duplicate games
  
• Windows has a MSVC makefile (Makefile.vc) and includes Stockfish 2.31 (JA legacy build)
  
• Fix windows stack problem (hopefully).
  
• Text Find widgets in help, crosstable, engine logs
  
• Game Save dialog remembers any custom tags you add to a game, making them easy to recall
  
• Restore drawing arrows and marks from the main board (also used by FICS premove)
  
• Arrow length/widths configurable via comment editor
  
• PGN Figurines now display in bold, and a different font, if applicable (from Gregor)
  
• Some new board textures (from Ed Collins)
  
• Automatically save "bitmaps" directory when exporting to HTML
  
• Player info window shows Photos in a scrollable canvas insead of stuck in top right corner
  
• Delete key deletes moves in game/variation after the current move
  
• Score Graphs are now bargraphs instead of lines
  
• Bind statusbar->middle button to 'switch base'
  
• FICS context menu, game offers now show more information, and premove
  
• FICS: deiconify/raise window when game starts (nodock mode only)
  
• FICS: stop clock when we make a move (even though we may not have acknowledgemnt from FICS about move)
  
• FICS: 'upload' command for uploading local games to FICS examine mode
  
• Allow the Name editor to glob '*' for Site, Event and Round fields (but not for 'All Games', too dangerous when used by mistake)
  
• The material board can display *all* taken pieces
  
• Gamelist button rows can be hidden by right-clicking the list, and it has a game save icon
  
• Right click V button adds the second variation
  
• Windows analysis engines no longer run at low priority
  
• When annotating the score on blunders, show the main score first, var second (eg: 1.00 / 2.50)
  
• Add programmers reference to the help contents/online doc
  
• Bind space-bar to engine start/stop
  
• Update twic2scid.py script
  
• Remember if .board is flipped for each open base
  
  Bugfixes
  
• Make the database switcher icons/frames get smaller if they are cramped (so we can see them all)
  
• Half fix UCI game (sergame.tcl) time issues
  
• Corrospondence Chess now works
  
• Tree Mask bugfix: Checks couldnt be added to mask
  
• Fix Tree 'Fill cache with game/base' feature
  
• Try to handle shortened FENs with Paste FEN
  
• Crosstable: 'Set Filter' now includes deleted games if deleted
  
• Crosstable: handle games with a year-only date differently for
  crosstable purposes (Instead of /-3 months, match any other games in
  the calender year
  
• FICS: Stop clocks after a takeback request from opponent
  
• FICS: Games with move lengths greater than 1:00:00 would break parse
  
• Add missing FICSLogin translation.
  
• New windows Phalanx build. It works better under win7, but has analysis polling issues
  
• OS X: pad out flag buttons in Header search
  
• base_open_failure was erroneously closing wrong base
  
• Windows Preview HTML for Reports is fixed
