Download TabMeister for Mac - Organize files into tabs instead of the Dock. MacUpdate Mac Software Downloads

TabMeister is a desktop utility that allows the user to organize applications, files, and folders into “Tabs” which act like pop-up windows sitting on the edge of the screen. Rather than cramming dozens of files into the Dock, these Tabs now allow for better organization of all of the files that users commonly need. TabMeister gives you immediate access to hundreds of files without cluttering the Dock or desktop.

Version 3.0: Release notes were unavailable when this listing was updated.

AKROBAT Does this application do the same thing as Overflow and RapidoStart? Both free and available here on MacUpdate.

EASER Although I don't use TabMeister, I think it fair to point out that Overflow is not free. I paid $15 for a license, and I just looked it up in MacUpdate. It still says $15 for a license.

AKROBAT Easer you are so correct. I recieved a free copy. RapidoStart is free though.

MACNEWS This is a straightforward, in-your-face app which does what it says and vice versa; and very responsively at that. All I want are a few more customization options, such as the ability to click and drag tabs, change their individual colors, reduce cpu usage, and I'm sold.

I think Pangea's entry into this genre is most welcome and a long time in coming. They are the best shareware game makers bar none (save, perhaps, Ambrosia), and I fully expect them to deliver the same consistency in quality, imagination and innovation in this genre that they've shown with their games.

PROUTY7 Great little, useful program. Will help me not clutter up my Dock, yet at the same time give me quick access to my most used applications. Very intuitive. One look at the initial set up and I was able to immediately set up tabs and store apps as I desired.

REALMAC17 DragThing does this and so much more with a better user interface. (Unless I missed something). Maybe Pangea should stick to games?

NECRISREX1 I tried using DragThing for a long time. It's a great productivity booster and I was a registered user for over a year.

HOWEVER, it does a lot more than Tabmeister, and the price reflects that. If all you are looking for is this functionality to bring tabbed windows style interface back to OS X, this is cheaper enough to have room in the market too. I'm sure.

MACNEWS Tabs in DragThing are an afterthought, and not implemented in a very fluid manner for my tastes.
