Ability to configure default database

[inorick]

It would be nice if I could configure a default database of my games that is opened automatically on startup.

thanks for your feedback. This is definitely a feature I will implement in the next version. Progress is currently a little bit slow though, since I am working on a faster PGN parser (required to search for positions in games), which is a major undertaking...

Good to hear. There are already some open source projects that implement PGN parsing so you don’t have to reinvent the wheel. Unless of course you want to 😊

... none of those projects parse the PGN into the game data-structures that are used by Jerry, so re-usability is unfortunately very low. E.g. tried the scid-parser, but aborted, as converting was more effort than rolling my own.... i.e. I have to reinvent the wheel here... unfortunately :-(
