Normally, you can edit a book (the >programmer or the user can do so) so as not to play (never) certain moves with a >certain colour, but knowing what to play if the opponents does play them. In Yes. Actually, I have all of this worked out in considerable detail, but have not coded any of it. I began about two years ago, purchased a C++ compiler, and started trying to learn C++ so that I could code it and run "it" on my computer. I may still do that, but learning how to program efficiently may take awhile,in view of the fact that I have other things going on too. To post the bulletin, I had to leave out a great deal [an understatement!] and did not even get to the business about building books, at all. You are right. I would not actually DELETE any "elements" in creating an "opening repertoire." Instead, I would "mark them" [in effect] as you suggest. >fact, as a user you can create as many books as you want.

Are you using the opening book of your games as a basis for, or study guide for, or to structure your efforts for, . . . creation of your own personal White and Black opening repertoires? That is fun too, if you like that sort of thing. > >Serge Desmarais
