EagleFiler makes managing your information easy. It lets you archive and search mail, Web pages, PDF files, word processing documents, images, and more. Use it to collect information from a variety of sources. Browse different types of files using a standard three-pane interface. Organize them into folders and annotate them with tags and notes, or leave everything in one folder and pin-point the information you need using the live search. Since EagleFiler stores its library in Finder format, you can use it in concert with the other tools in your Mac ecosystem.

What's New
Version 1.5.8:
- EagleFiler can now import rich text copied or dragged from Firefox and Google Chrome.
- Made various optimizations to improve the responsiveness of the user interface, particularly when resizing the main browser window.
- Searches by Filename, Title, From, and To/Cc, as well as matching in smart folders, are now diacritic-insensitive. For example, you can now search for resume and find résumé. (Anywhere and Notes searches have always been diacritic-insensitive.)
- Added the Copy Filename, Copy File Path, and Copy File URL AppleScripts.
- Added support for Growl notifications via GNTP (requires Mac OS X 10.7 or later).
- When printing an image, EagleFiler will now center it and scale it down, as necessary, to fit the paper.
- The Import From Apple Mail script now works in Full Screen mode on Mac OS X 10.7 Lion.
- EagleFiler now skips importing temporary files for Microsoft Excel and invisible files from IntegrityChecker.
- Tried to work around a bug in Mac OS X 10.6 that could cause EagleFiler to open multiple copies of the same library.
- The update checksum script command is now synchronous, and it gains an optional for parameter that takes a list of records. This is much faster for bulk operations.
- When rebuilding a library, EagleFiler now restores all the tags, not just the ones that were in use.
- EagleFiler is better at checking fallback locations when reading OpenMeta tags.
- EagleFiler is better at handling errors when setting OpenMeta tags.
- Fixed a bug where EagleFiler could crash after a token field malfunction.
- Fixed a bug importing the selected Web text from newer versions of Safari Reader.
- Fixed a bug displaying e-mail messages when the Source URL column was shown.
- Fixed a bug where the color of newly created tags could be set to white instead of black.
- Fixed a bug where the wrong tag could be applied if you clicked a checkbox in the Tags inspector while renaming a tag.
- Fixed a bug that could lead to a tag temporarily not showing in the source list after changing its position in the hierarchy.
- EagleFiler’s reporting of unexpected errors is now more detailed and more robust.
- The Importing Mail From Outlook section of the manual now explains how to use a smart folder to capture mail from multiple Outlook folders at once.
- The manual now specifically recommends telling iWork applications to include previews with their documents.
- The direct build of EagleFiler is now code-signed, too.
- Cache folders for EagleFiler’s helper tools now have a reverse domain name prefix.
- The preferences for the Apple Mail capture script are now stored in the main EagleFiler preferences file.
- Launched applications no longer inherit EagleFiler’s Python environment variables, which could cause problems if they also used Python.

EagleFiler in a nutshell:
EagleFiler in a nutshell:
- With a single keypress, import Web pages, mail messages, or any file on your Mac.
- EagleFiler stores them in an open format: regular files and folders that are fully accessible to your other applications.
- Optionally: encrypt the files, add tags, notes, color-coded labels, and other metadata.
- Browse by folder or by tag, or use the live search to find the information you need (faster than Spotlight).
- View, edit, or create documents directly in EagleFiler's streamlined interface, or double-click to edit using another application.

One reason it's faster to manage files than the Finder is ease and speed of searching; another is the automatic preview of almost any kind of document.
i'm trying to give 5 stars on "Features" but I'm running into a bug on Macupdate.

I'd give a full five stars except for the performance hit the app takes from using the PyObjC framework. For whatever reason I've noticed the lag even more having gone to OS X 10.7.
In any case, anyone looking for a digital information keeper/organizer should highly look at EagleFiler.

Eagle Filer is the answer and then some. I tried Yojimbo but there are too many file types that it simply won't accept. With Eagle Filer, whatever I drag into the window or drop pane goes right in the database with no problem (so far). It is fast and simple to use. It can be password protected (paranoid programmer that I am).
This simplifies my work environment. No separate code snippet tools, no graphics library manager. Between Eagle Filer and ShadowClipboard (my preferred clipboard manager), I can leave out everything else and have exactly what I need to be productive and not waste time fiddling with all my productivity tools, as I'm so prone to doing.

In eaglefiler, if you have a lot of items in a folder, you can adjust things so that you can see more of those items, OR you can adjust it so that you can see more of what you are editing/viewing, BUT NOT BOTH. arggggh! I hope this changes soon.
This is mitigated only by

I very much appreciate how the software files your docs in the normal Finder hierarchy. That means that if I ever stop using EagleFiler, all my docs will still be there, just as I've filed them.
I also appreciate the use of OpenMeta.
It's simply better than the competition. And the competition ain't bad.

It took forever to store in new cretaed database 175 messages with attachments (couple photos and such...)

Importing 175 messages should take just a few seconds. If it seems abnormally slow, please contact technical support.
