Sigma Chess was updated today by Ole Christensen to version 5.1.

Get it at:  http://www.sigmachess.com/

From the README:

5) NEW IN VERSION 5.1

Version 5.1 is a minor update with the following changes from version 5.0:

•   Full ExaChess 2.0 support (score/best line, annotations, new time controls).
•   No longer freezes when receiving a "long" move list from ExaChess.
•   No longer uses too much time in ExaChess's secs/move time controls.
•   Analyze game/collection now stores the analysis AFTER each move instead of
before.
•   Fixed a bug in analyze game/collection: It didn't skip matching analysis if
requested.
•   Analyze game/collection and Copy Analysis now uses SAN format.
•   Changed default annotation/analysis format parameters.
•   EPD files can now be opened/imported just like PGN files (if the file name
ends with ".epd").
•   When pasting EPD positions the optional tags (id, am, bm) are now read
properly.
•   Added extra keyboard short cuts for prev/next collection game (control +
left/right arrow).
•   Score for library moves are now shown as "book" (as in ExaChess).
•   Sigma 4.0 "Standard" board (butter) re-included.
•   Sigma 4.0 colour scheme "Forest" re-included (but now renamed "Leprechaun"
after my
     favourite Macintosh puzzle game!).
•   Multiple board frame colours (as in Sigma 4.0).
