I remember that it was put forward on Rebel Board as Martin said back in the Rebel 9 days. Ed or Robert Kemper wrote a patch but it somehow was not taken up in following versions of the GUI. It is just the description given of the symbols of + over = etc. which can be put in the game-comments by the user, so the user just has to know which symbols to use for himself if he wants to write a move-comment and it should be alright. The symbols are not used by Rebel itself in its own analysis, otherwise that would certainly get confusing! Hi all! Eelco
