XG file format documentation

In Response To: XG file format documentation (Michael Petch)

I was thinking GUI/browser. Sort of like XG/gnu without the engine.

What I would like, is to be able to open a .xg file, on a system where I doesn't have XG installed, and see the basic match summary (score, number of moves, PR, etc.), and then be able to browse (GUI) through the match, to see any interesting decisions/errors, and the associated analysis for these.

An example is, when people post XG files here on this forum, stating:

XXX vs. YYY XG Link: xxx_yyy.xg
XXX vs. YYY TXT Link: xxx_yyy.txt

Then, unless I'm browsing from my primary PC, I have no chance of seeing any PR information about the match, or other match details (I could replay the moves from the .txt file, but...).

In addition, if a free viewer (GUI/Browser) became available for the major OS'es, then there would be no need for people to export and post .txt files.
