Not all file formats/calls are supported yet. It will be expended.
Please from now on use BLI_fopen, BLI_* for file manipulations.
For non-windows systems BLI_fopen just calls fopen.
For Windows, the utf-8 string is translated to utf-16 string in order to call UTF version of the function.
- removed deprecated bitmap arg from IMB_allocImBuf (plugins will need updating).
- mostly tagged UNUSED() since some of these functions look like they may need to have the arguments used later.
- fix for blend file thumbnails not being immediately visible in an external file manager (was writing the thumb before the blend)
- move overlay function from wm_files.c into thumbs_blend.c
- uses same thumbnail system as image browser
- blend files show thumbnails in ubuntu/gnome (freedesktop spec)
- 128x128 images are embedded into the blend file header, a simple loader avoids reading the entire blend file to extract it when generating thumbnails in the file selector.
When the image browser reads a directory it loads images and creates thumbnails, blend files embedded images are treated just like loading an image.
- the thumbnail is created from the camera view in solid mode. (no camera == no thumbnal).
- readfile/writefile.c: had to use the 'TEST' code name to save thumbnails, anything else would segfault older blender versions on load. (its not used elsewhere).
