TotalFinder Review
TotalFinder is in a nutshell, the normal Finder with tabs. However, looking closer into it, there is some more features that may or may not be of any use to you. Of course, the first one is tabbed browsing. The tabs are the much-loved Chrome-esque type, which makes going through your computer, a breeze to navigate. The next function is Cut and Paste. This is the drag and drop function, only much faster. It proves to be useful when copying large amounts of files, as some older Macs experience movement lag when dragging-and-dropping. The very useful option for fans of the drag-and-drop, is Dual Mode. This enables you to have two Finder windows, in one Finder window, if that makes any sense. It gives you the ability to easily drag and drop files without having to move windows. My favorite personal feature is the Visor. The Visor allows you to be in ANY application, have the Finder open at any time, in a way similar to the in-game console from id Software's Quake (classic...) Now we are going to move on to the features, that may or may not, be of any use to you. The first one, is very simple and easy to explain. (actually, both of them are easy to explain.) Anyway, the first of two, is the ability to show system files. This is NOT recommended for the average user as you may have a risk of messing something up. For power users, move right on ahead. This kind of a NOT needed feature, as it's really only needed for tinkerers and the aforementioned power users. The next one on the list is a simple one, it just lets you have the folders on top of the files, which makes it easier to access the folders you need without having to look through all your files.
Well, there's my review. There's actually much to say about TotalFinder :) But, it does prove to be useful to your average Mac user, or even your advanced user.
I give it a rating of... 9.6/10.
TotalFinder is truly a great piece of software for the Mac platform, and I hope more awesome features get added in the future, so my rating is actually kinda incomplete. Thank you to Antonin Hildebrand at BinaryAge for this plug-in (yes, it's a plug-in.)
And that's the end to my review! I hope you enjoyed reading, and I will make more reviews in the future, so watch out for those.
