SGF Tools 2.0.9
SGF Tools 2.0 is a rewrite from scratch of the Mac tools for SGF (Smart Game Format) Go game files, for today's macOS. It has:
- Thumbnails in Finder: each game's board after the opening moves, with a stack of boards for a file that holds several games.
- Quick Look previews: press the Space bar on a game to see the board beside the players, the result, the event, the date, and the rest of the game information.
- Spotlight search: the players, event, date, result, comments, and more of every game, in Spotlight, Finder, and
mdfind. - A screensaver that plays the opening of a random game from your collection on each display.
New in 2.0.9: a much lighter screensaver. Each move now redraws only the small areas of the board that change, so it looks the same while asking far less of the Mac.
Requires a Mac with Apple silicon and macOS 26 or later. Free and open source (MIT license). SGF Tools was started in 2009 by Jason Foreman; 2.0 is a new version by Pragmaphilia Labs.
