Does anyone have any suggestions for a free chess opening program? Something where I can create variations and put comments for each.

I found this very difficult to use. Maybe I'm just stupid *sigh*

goldendog

It was good for me.

Are you using a different program for this?

I downloaded this, but whenever I go to the tabs on the top the program always freezes for me. Like Repertoire- and then it freezes. If I don't click on it, it looks pretty good though, do you know how to fix this? Or is just my computer.

licenser- I'm checking out that program right now.

Well, Scid has a Repertoire Editor :)

Probably an OS thing. I'm in XP and have no problems.

goldendog- Thanks, it seems like version 4 is coming out soon and that would probably work better. For now, it seems like I don't really need those tabs anyways.

rooperi- Scid looks good, I'm going to try that out too.

Thanks guys.
