SILIZIUM  Thanks for this update Sveinbjörn! Works great.

ROBOTANK  I had some problems with the archive I downloaded for this app. First of all, BetterZip encountered an error and couldn't extract it. Second, ArchiveUtility was able to extract the archive, but the version of the app and folder extracted showed as 1.3.1. Strangely, the contents of the archive when displayed in BetterZip before extraction showed a folder numbered 1.4. I tried redownloading in case the file had become corrupt, but I had the same issue. Anyone have any suggestions?

SMENASCO  as it says above, this is a frontend for the lsof command in the terminal. this same type of thing can be done just by piping 'grep' with 'lsof' in the terminal. like this

lsof | grep iTunes

if you wanted to do the same thing without the gui.

JUNPEI  Very nifty utility! Though, sorting items by column doesn't seem to work.

SILIZIUM  It does! But it does not save the window size and position. Thats nasty.

THEL  What a handy little utility - thank-you!

IMO, "Ferret" would have been a more appropriate name for it; though, of course, the icon...

[Example: http://www.akanimalfood.com/ferret.jpg]

...wouldn't have been any prettier! *LOL*

ANONYMOUS  Surely you could have used a much more appropriate icon display... that one is just sick... meh.

ANONYMOUS  Meh...though the icon didn't say much for the app, I decided to give it a chance... to find out it doesn't work... and that each time I double-click the app to open, it "unexpectedly quits"... For those looking for a more suitable, stable app I recommend "Cunning Fox".

RADD  The icon is "sick"? Because it's a picture of a sloth?Are you offended at the angle of the picture?

Three points...

1) Paste a new icon, it's easy. I can't imagine being offended by the icon, personally... but if nature is so unnatural to you, by all means... command-i and paste a new one. You can even put a new Sloth.icns file inside the app and change the internal icon if you like.

2) Works fine here.

3) It's free... and it is not the same thing as Cunning Fox. Sloth shows files in use by an app... it is not necessarily a process viewer. Different idea.

JEDIK  Very nice, and useful. I just missed the hability to order the items clicking in the column title. A "search" function would be awesome! ;)

Thanks for making it free for everyone.
