"""
This module adds a thumbnailer for SolidWorks file.

How it works
============

A SolidWorks file is an `OLE`_ file. This file contains
an entry named ``PreviewPNG`` (or :samp:`{Something-}PreviewPNG`)
which contains the thumbnail as a PNG file.

This thumbnailer uses :command:`gsf` (from ``libgsf-bin``) to find the name
of the entry and to extract its content.
