DESCRIPTION

18       Create SGF thumbnails according to the Thumbnail Managing Standard[1]
19       from freedesktop.org[2]. This allows the user to preview the SGF files
20       in file managers that support this standard, like Nautilus[3]. The
21       installation script install.sh in the GoGui package will install this
22       program as a thumbnailer for the GNOME[4] desktop environment.
23
24       The thumbnails will show the final position of the main variation, or
25       the first position that contains both black and white setup stones. The
26       rationale for this is that one usually wants to see the last position
27       of a game, which may contain black handicap setup stones before the
28       moves, but the thumbnail should not show the solution of files
29       containing Go problems.
30
31       If the thumbnailer is invoked without output filename, the thumbnails
32       will be created in the directory .thumbnails/normal in the user home
33       directory.
