If you don't use TotalFInder, Fiwi is useful (if a little slow).

I emailed the developer of Fiwi and he was very responsive - so mucho kudos for that!
He has run tests and says Fiwi works fine with TotalFinder 1.4.9 on Mountain Lion (all latest versions as of April 2013). He is looking into issues with Snow Leopard and 1.3.x versions of TotalFinder.

We ask MacUpdate.com admin to delete Dochoz posting below as it is wrong and damaging to Fiwi.

Nice app! How come that you didn't change the version number? The 2009 version was already 2.0.8. ;-)

Thanks for your support.
Fiwi stayed at 2.0.8 because it required no change at all to work on Lion.

Thank you for trying Fiwi.
Fiwi is running on all our Lion (10.7 to 10.7.2) Macs since day one and it is a lot faster than on Snow Leopard. It also runs with Lion on thousands Macs all over the world. Try again and please, if you can, delete your rating of 2 as it is based on inexact information. It damages our near perfect rating, without just cause. If you have any problems with your System Software or a faulty Finder, please contact us directly at support@wordpower-software.com and we will be pleased to help.

Thank you for pointing this out. We have corrected the URL in our profile. As soon as MacUpdate updates accordingly everything should be back to normal
In any case here are the correct links:

TotalFinder. Look it up. Bye

Still for this price you won't get those kind of applications so for that it is very useful for those who don't need all the extras which come with those dual pain file managers.

It's OK if you already have 2 Finder windows open, then it works as intended, but if you have one or none open it just keeps spawning more Finder tabs and if you use TotalFinder's Visor feature, it grabs that from the bottom of the screen and spawns infinite new tabs on that!
Shame I like Fiwi years ago.
