I tried a quick test to test this idea, by converting a chessmaster book, .obk
format, to .fbk format. But i've not been able to import and export it to pgn
(with those nested variants). I tried CB8, but could only find the option to
import CB format books (.ctg). Perhaps Chessbase Lite will import .fbk books?
I'll have to download it and try.
