Game databases vs. various languages/character sets How do people use chess software in large countries like China, India or Russia, if they don't speak English, and more importantly, if they don't know Latin letters? With unicode there's not big problem to localize software for these countries, but what about names and databases? Are there special databases for these regions, using their symbols?
You don't need good English to play chess...

is Baidu (China's larger search engine) page on chess.



Do you see? The Chinese know Nxf2, Qxe3+, Bg3.

The Chinese players don't need a new software because they can use Chinese in a chess software.

In the screenshot, I have Mikhail Botvinnik in Chinese in my ScidVsPC software.
