Macintosh Software Search: New column sorting and sidebar filtering!  
|
DESCRIPTION
FolderGlance is a small Contextual Menu Plugin for the Finder. When it is installed, it allows you to control-click or right-click on folders to see and open their contents, as well as examine the contents of sub-folders down an unlimited number of levels. FolderGlance also has the following features:
  • Adding your own custom folders to the contextual menu, enabling FolderGlance to act as a very versatile launcher
  • Moving, copying and making aliases of the currently selected files in a folder you browse to
  • Control-free popups: Open the contextual menu without holding down the control-key or using a two-button mouse
  • Drag-and-drop of files and folders
  • In-menu preview of arbitrary files
  • Opening files with an application different than the default by using an "Open with..." menu you can tailor to suit your own taste
  • Changing the font size used in contextual menus
  • Disable the menu fade effect, for a more speedy menu experience
  • Browsing into package contents
  • Optional display of custom file and folder icons
  • Customizable sorting and customizable display of hidden files and folders
  • Trash files directly from the contextual menu by typing Command-Backspace or Command-T
  • Localized to Japanese, French, Polish, Italian and Norwegian.
  • Universal: Runs on both PowerPC and Intel-based Macs!

FolderGlance is donationware, which means that it is basically free. However, for those who can afford it, I would greatly appreciate receiving a donation.

WHAT'S NEW
Version 2.1:
  • FolderGlance now works with Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard
  • Fxed bug on Intel-based Macs where some cleverly named folders wouldn't work (Russian and Japanese)
  • Fixed bug where Command-T/Command-Backspace wouldn't work on Intel-based Macs
  • Exposed Control-free popup functionality for all applications
REQUIREMENTS
Mac OS X 10.3 or later. Leopard is supported.

    KUPHD  There has been something I've been wondering for quite a while. When I pull up the contextual menu and browse my OS X System drive, I still see the invisible folders etc, home, net, tmp and var. Those don't show up when I actually open the drive, but they always have in the FolderGlance menu. I've got the "Files to include in menus:" setting set to "Only visible files" and I don't see anything else discussing that.

    Can someone tell me what (if anything) I'm missing or is this normal?

    Thanks in advance.  (Version 2.1)

    BILLY THE BIKER  Update. This app comes and goes. Holding down the mouse will sometimes bring up the CM, and when it does it will stick until a restart or log in, then it won't appear for awhile. I haven't quite figured out why it appears.   (Version 2.1)
