Produces a “search mask” in which you can tell the program to look for particular
games. By clicking on the tabs at the top of the search mask, you can define all kinds
of different categories.

White/Black: Enter the name or part of it (“kasp” is sufficient to find Kasparov's
games). You can use wildcards: “*asparov” will get you all Kasparov’s games as well.
The search is case sensitive, but typing a small letter at the beginning will work, since
it is automatically changed into a capital.
Ignore colours: If you enter the name of one player and click this on then all his
games will be shown. If "Ignore colours" is off, then only his white or black games are
listed. With two players clicking "Ignore colours" on will give you all games of both
players against each other, while clicking it off will only retrieve the ones in which the
first player had white and the second black.
Tournament, Annotator: Here you can search for specific tournaments or games
with commentary by certain annotators. The search is case sensitive.
