In M-Chess Pro, you just call up the log file after >the game for a complete analysis of each position! The program does not save a complete log file with each game. However, if you use the "Time Stamp Annotation" option (Preferences -> Board Settings -> Function Tab), then some analysis info will be saved to the "Player" tab of the Annotation window. You can then save off this information in either the default CMG saved game format, or into a PGN file if you choose to save the "Player" annotations. >2.

Just open the "Mentor Lines" window BEFORE you start the Game Analysis. You can then watch all of the analysis output indefinitely. jm
