Description Robert Ancell 2007-11-03 06:03:19 UTC 
Currently glChess only allows the user to load the first game specified in a PGN file. This is mostly because the PGN parser is too slow to load large PGN files (can be 1.4M).

This can be bypassed by loading the files in the background and the user can stop loading once the first game is available.

Need to do something sooner rather than later; large PGNs take absurdly long to load.
