Wait for 1.2. But not sure if this will help on your box. Which Linux
distro are you using?
I just tried to load your gogames.tgz files with the "old parser" on
Linux with glGo 1.1 and 1.2 Beta. Worked. Sorry, I cannot reproduce your
issue at the moment, so it's very hard to fix.
Anyways, the "old parser" is scheduled for the trashbin at some point.
When I'm sure the "new parser" is 100% working. I kept the old code as
fallback for now.
Support for old labels as in L[aa][bb] will be in version 1.2. Both old
and new parser.

Found the problem and fixed for 1.2. It was a programming error in glGo.
However, the error only fires on Linux (GTK thing), not on Windows or
Mac. I don't use Linux much lately, so didn't notice. Thanks for this hint!

Where in the board window would you put the tree display? Right side is
quite occupied with the clocks, buttons and comment/kibitz textarea, so
that's out of discussion. Though the sidebar can be turned off, I'd
guess most people have it visible when editing or viewing files.
The Tree is horizontal, so putting it on the left like the vertical
TreeList is no solution.
I know my opinion about multiple-windows isn't shared by everybody out
there, but I personally find it so much more practical to arrange
individual windows on my desktop than having everything inside one window.

If you want to scale the 3D board manually, play with NUMPAD +/- and the
normal +/- keys (they do NOT the same. First zooms, latter changes the
fovy angle. The effect is quite similar but not the same. Changing fovy
angle changes the perspective, zooming does not. Try and see yourself.)
So you can open the TreeList on the left side, then zoom the board down
using NUMPAD - until it fits.
Zoom/fovy values are remembered when you close the board and open a new
one, but that's not optimal because when you turn the TreeList off again
you'd need to zoom out again manually.
Yes, all this should be done automatically. Above is meant as
workaround. I don't know if I add this for 1.2, probably not. I want to
release soon and at some point I need to stop adding new stuff else I
get it never out. Same problem every release. :*)
