that will lose a lot of information. IE 1. e4 will have a big number
of games, but by the time you get to move 10, the number of times that
move is played will shrink. I don't see another easy way to do this,
although most programs should ignore { xxx yyy zzz } type comments and
they would still get a usable book. Other ideas are welcome, however.
