If I understand things correctly, the HH which is displayed by HM if I select a hand and choose 'view hand history', is not stored but is generated from the postgresql data when needed, right?

If so, is it possible that you show the (pseudo)code used to make this hand history? It would enable third-party clients to work with hand histories independent of sites, because they only need to parse the HM Hand History format; effectively declaring the HM format to be the universal format, which is nice for HM too.

I will forward this to the developer for a reply when he is able.

Hi, we have an option in the Hand History options to save Standardized XML hands. When this is enabled all your rows in the handhitories table will also contain an xml file which is essentially this universal format.

We will provide ways for people to plugin new hand history formats in the future

This looks like a great addition and is indeed exactly what I was looking for, thanks a lot.
