Hi Keith, the symbols $19, $5, ... are so called NAGs (Numeric Annotation Glyphs) and part of the PGN standard. In the meantime it is common to use the usual symbols !, !!, ?, ??, !?, ? also in PGN files, but this is *not* PGN compliant ! Every program reading PGN files should be able either to ignore the NAGs or to interpret them right. BTW: I know the reverse effect in ChessBase: I imported PGN games, using symbols like ! into ChessBase 6 and this symbols where simply ignored by ChessBase: one hundred games, mostly with annotation symbols, imported and all symbols vanished :-( Manfred
