Create SGF thumbnails according to the
Thumbnail Managing Standard from
freedesktop.org.
This allows the user to preview the SGF files in file managers that support this
standard, like
Nautilus.
The installation script install.sh in the GoGui package
will install this program as a thumbnailer for the
GNOME desktop environment.
The thumbnails will show the final position of the main variation, or the first position that contains both black and white setup stones. The rationale for this is that one usually wants to see the last position of a game, which may contain black handicap setup stones before the moves, but the thumbnail should not show the solution of files containing Go problems.
If the thumbnailer is invoked without output filename, the thumbnails will be
created in the directory .thumbnails/normal in the
user home directory.
