Over the year a lot of xcf files have accumulated on the hard disk. Sometimes the names do not make sense, I do not know which file to delete.
Am using Gimp on Linuxmint and in the file browser it does not show miniature images. I have to open each file with Gimp to see what it contains and then delete it or not.
Question: Is there a viewer for xcf file format to quickly get an idea of the image and decide if to delete or not?

The Gwenview image viewer shows miniatures of XCF files. Other image viewers may also do so).
