Chessbase Issue

Open ChristophHeilmann opened this issue 7 years ago • 2 comments

Hello,

when I convert files from cbh file format into pgn with Chessbase, the output looks like a proprietary Chessbase format. Is it possible to clean these so-called "pgn" files?

Regards, Christoph Heilmann

Please define clean - I assume you mean just the game headers and moves without the annotations? If that is correct, the answer is yes. It should be covered in the documentation. If you need help, send me the file and I will return it to you with the proper commands for you to use going forward. Just give me few days.

Thank you for your reply. I want to clean the commentary from some nonsense strings. But I've noticed that maybe I can do this with Notepad ++ and regular expressions. If I fail with Notepad ++ I contact you again.
