Hi Dominique, thanks for your offer of help with a Mac
version of Palview. As you suggest in your postings, the
first thing we need is someone with a Mac that has a C
compiler. From there it should be relatively easy to get the
sources compiled. (The C sources are quite simple.) Palview does not use any sophisticated lexical analysis
engines such as lex or yacc. The program has a very simple
PGN parser that we have found to be pretty stable. Of course
most of the PGN files that Palview reads are actually
generated by other chess software. So we usually can rely
upon getting well written PGNs into the program right at the
start.
