New bugfixed pgn-extract-xp available for download.

Thanks to Alex Guerrero - he stated ....

'I use pgn-extract for my program AlexWBTM. I had not problems in my PC XP, but I found problems in searchs by labels in PCs with
Win98 and WinME. Bugs appear sometimes.

In commandline I did some bats thus.
"C:\Chess\Pgn\Pgn-extract" Karpov.pgn -TwKasp -oFile.pgn
it does not find Kasparovs games.
"C:\Chess\Pgn\Pgn-extract" Karpov.pgn -Tr1-0 -oFile.pgn
it does not find results where whites win.
"C:\Chess\Pgn\Pgn-extract" Karpov.pgn -Td1980 -oFile.pgn
it does not find games of 1980.... '


This bug has been squished (hopefully!)

First fix - Switch from Watcom to GCC compiler. WinMe/98 now working - but XP now not functioning properly.

Second fix - Switched from GCC to Digital Mars compiler. Now functioning correctly in XP/ME

Sorry for any inconvenience.

Thanks Jim

I am very happy because you solved an problem which I was not able to solve.

Now all people will be able to use pgn-extract with all its functions.

I see than many people do not know the pgn-extract power.
I believe pgn-extract is as good as Scid and Chessbase, and we need not change to database Scid or Chessbase to work with PGNs and therefore pgn-extract is faster.

Note. Site to get your program does not allow downloads of external links, and I have to use a program like GetRight or GoZilla.

Regards and Luck.
