+## exe-thumbnailer
+
+**exe-thumbnailer** (formerly gnome-exe-thumbnailer) is a simple program that generates thumbnails for Windows executable files (.exe, .lnk, .msi, and .dll). It supports numerous file managers, including Nautilus, Caja, Nemo, Thunar (when Tumbler is installed), and PCManFM.
+
+exe-thumbnailer originates from ideas found in Ubuntu Brainstorm, and was originally written as part of the Karmic-Wine-Integration spec: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/karmic-wine-integration
