My Windows 7 Bootcamp partition failed me, so I'm using Scid vs Mac OSX 10.9.5 app to test my engine. It works fine, but sometimes a tournament game is 'interrupted' and I don't know why. Pc is a Chess Database program. You can get it at this video I give an overview of the program, show how to ente.
I like the chessx UI a little better - of course it's what I'm used to. I like that it highlights the destination square when you hover over a piece, so that you only have to click once to make a move. You can disable that feature if you don't like it, and right clicking changes the destination square. I also like being able to see the pgn and the analysis at the same time. Maybe I can do that in Scid vs Mac, but I haven't figured out how yet. Chessx is very similar to hiarcs, and much of the information in the hiarcs forums will cross over to chessx.
You can analyze games on it. If there is not an analysis section to the right of the board, just go to View and then select Analysis 1. If you'd like a 2nd analysis window (ie you want to use 2 engines at the same time) you can do that. It's supposed to come with Stockfish preloaded. If for some reason it didn't, in the menu bar go to chessx-preferences-engines, and you can add it much the same as you did with Scid.
Edit: After spending some time using Scid, I see that it can do all the same things that I like about chessx. I still prefer the chessx UI, but as I said before, I'm just used to it. I do like that Scid can auto annotate games, something that I don't believe chessx does.
