SCID v5.2 Is Out

[Fulvio]

New release with a couple of things that might interest you:

- Engine Eval Chart: real-time eval graph in the engine window, plus an "Autoscan" mode that walks through the main line automatically.
- Faster Tree Stats: tree searches now use multiple threads. Noticeably faster on modern CPUs.
- Better variation navigation, touchpad scrolling, dark theme fixes, and more.

Screenshots and changelog: https://github.com/benini/scid/wiki/Version5.2
Download: https://sourceforge.net/projects/scid/

I hope you like it.

Scid could not find the Snack audio package at startup. Sound is disabled.

How to install it?

I'm trying to compile for MacOs Intel (Only ARM is provided) but I'm getting errors.
Has anyone a compiled version for Mac Tahoe Intel?

Thank you very much for the new version!

I have tried it, and when analysing a complete game with Stockfish 18 and for 10 seconds each move, it crashes with the following error code:

Aplication error
Error: Invalid character in array index in expression "... < (0.0 - $::informant("+...
