sgfthumbnail -help

sgfthumbnail -version

Description

Create SGF thumbnails according to the Thumbnail Managing Standard from freedesktop.org. This allows previewing the SGF files in filemanagers that support this standard, like Nautilus. The installation script install.sh in the GoGui package will install SgfThumbnail 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. If SgfThumbnail is invoked without output filename, the thumbnails will be created in the directory .thumbnails/normal in the user home directory.
