-* TODO [#B] Make the "debug level" configurable
-  The speedup from (setq cl-optimize-speed 9) in chess-pos.el is due to
-  eliding assert calls.  This basically makes asserts useless since they are
-  now turned off unconditionally.  It would be nice to have a kind of
-  "--enable-debug" or somesuch at configure time to make this obvious.

-* DONE [#B] scid: chess-scid-get-result fails on some machines (timing?)
-  - State "DONE"       [2008-09-17 Wed 05:49] \\
-    Fixed by adding more delays in case text has not appeared from the command.
-  - State "STARTED"    [2008-09-16 Tue 04:38] \\
-    I believe I have a fix for this, commit
-    33d57dc0f667c8d1168b46f9e73d9510d8c7e518, but I must await Mario's test on his
-    8 CPU machine.
-  It happens on a fast 8-CPU machine of mine that chess-scid-get-result
-  returns the empty string.  The reason for this is that sometimes, the prompt
-  is not output immediately after a result, so upon next call to
-  chess-scid-get-result the first output we see is the prompt ("% ") from the
-  previous command which due to the current algo results in
-  chess-scid-get-result returning "".  It would need to continue reading if it
-  sees a prompt as first output.  Waiting until we see a prompt to make sure
-  we have all the output results in *very slow* behaviour, maybe due to
-  line-buffering (the prompt has no final \n, obviously), so we probably shoud
-  skip over prompt and continue reading.

-* TODO [#C] Investigate the performance possibilities researched by Mario
-  Well, I've played a little with a few transformations but I haven't managed
-  to get any substantial speedup.  Things I see are:
-
-  - char-valid-p is called at least three times, the value could be saved in
-    the toplevel let*.
-  - I am not sure but I think I read inline quoted lists can be slower.  I
-    tried to define the direction lists as a alist in a defconst, but it
-    didnt't really show as a speedup...
-  - The chess--add-candidates defsubst does needless check of check-only in
-    some cases.  I.e., if we rewrite the first cond clause to do different
-    things if check-only is t or nil, that might also do a bit.
-
-  But really, I didnt find anything worthwhile... Maybe it could make sense to
-  have a separate function to handle the (memq piece '(nil t)) case.

+  ( 15.e5 SPC Nf3 SPC )
+
+  and you'd get three display updates, on e5 SPC, you get that
+  ply, then the second one, and on ) you get the position before the 
+  variation. Move point into the variation again, and hit C-l and you

+    tried to define the direction lists as a alist in a defconst, but it

+  - The chess--add-candidates defsubst does needless check of check-only in
+    some cases.  I.e., if we rewrite the first cond clause to do different
+    things if check-only is t or nil, that might also do a bit.
+

+  It happens on a fast 8-CPU machine of mine that chess-scid-get-result

+  is not output immediately after a result, so upon next call to
+  chess-scid-get-result the first output we see is the prompt ("% ") from the

+  sees a prompt as first output.  Waiting until we see a prompt to make sure
+  we have all the output results in *very slow* behaviour, maybe due to
+  line-buffering (the prompt has no final \n, obviously), so we probably shoud
+  skip over prompt and continue reading.
