# The games/scid port

## scid-5.0.2p0 – chess database software

## Description

    SCID (Shane's Chess Information Database) is an application to view,
    edit, and manage collections of chess games. It can interface with
    XBoard engines (such as Crafty and GNU Chess), and UCI engines (e.g.
    Fruit, Rybka and Stockfish). Using Scid, one may play games against
    human opponents (on the Free Internet Chess Server), or computer
    opponents. Database features include a Move Tree with statistics, Player
    Information and Photos, and General Searches for specific endings (e.g.
    pawn vs. rook or rook vs. queen), positions or players. It has a
    database with 1.4 million games (ScidBase).
