Hope this article make it easy for you to understand what is a PGN file.

If you have any comments or questions you are more then welcome to mail me or post it on the comment section. I don't think you understand my point- this article has absolutely no technical merit. I understand that you're writing an article about how to write a PGN file. My point is that it presents nothing interesting in the realm of source code techniques or file formats. Why are you posting an article that describes a file specification to a website devoted to technical articles relating to source code? As my earlier reply indicated, this particular file specification is available numerous other places. So, if your only intention was to post the file specification, your article is unncessary. If your intention is to describe how to write a delimited text file, your article does not present any interesting or unique mechanisms for doing so. That fact that you have a few WriteLine statements used to create a PGN file (verses a FLORP, DOOWOP, or WHATZIT file) is not interesting. You can change my reply to state "poorly-written and elementary example in VB.NET." My mistake on the language- I primarily write in C# all day, so that's always on my mind. You're comparing apples to oranges when you compare PGN files to XML files. XML is a language- it (in itself) describes no actual content. An article describing different means of writing XML would have technical merit.Īn XML file, generically speaking, is a file containing some sort of data described using XML.

csproj file, for example, is an application-specific file that uses XML to specify the application-specific data. An article that describes only how to write a. Csproj file would not have technical merit- if one already knows how to write an XML file, and the schema for the.
