'''SCID''', (Scid, Shane's Chess Information Database)<br/>
a [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cross-platform cross platform] [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open-source_software open source] chess database under the [[Free Software Foundation#GPL|GNU Lesser General Public License]], to view, edit, and manage collections of chess games,

SCID can read [[Portable Game Notation |PGN]] and [[Extended Position Description|EPD]] files (and export to PGN, [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LaTeX LaTeX] and [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HTML HTML]) and uses its own database format for fast database search and queries by [[Chess Position|position]], material, pattern, players, and opening, etc., and can use [[XBoard]] and [[UCI]] compliant chess engines to analyze [[Chess Game|games]], and further supports mining of 5-man [[Nalimov Tablebases]] <ref>[https://www.stmintz.com/ccc/index.php?id=140108 Scid 2.1 (free chess database) now available] by [[Shane Hudson]], [[CCC]], November 20, 2000</ref>.

=GUI=
The SCID [[GUI]], written in [[Tcl-Tk|Tcl]], evolved to a sophisticated multiple purpose [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tab_%28GUI%29 tabbed document interface], with game lists of databases and [[GUI#GameWindow|game windows]] with [[GUI#BoardWindow|board]] and tabbed [[GUI#NotationWindow|notation]], [[Opening Book|opening]] tree, and analyze panes as document views.
Database queries and [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Database_transaction transactions] are initiated via [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Modal_window modal] [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dialog_box dialog boxes].
