OSX Finder Replacement [Update]
Saturday, February 7, 2009 at 15:52
A while back I wrote something about Path Finder as a probable Finder substitute. Well, it's been a couple of months, and I must say that I'm still using the crappy Apple Finder.
Why? Well, I guess that it kinda grows on you, eventhough Path Finder has 'some' neat features. It just didn't feel like a real substitute. It felt more like an add-on.
So, back to Finder with its little annoyances like;
- Not being able to move or delete files when the OS is busy creating the thumbnails.
- No Cut&Paste (⌘-x, ⌘-v) in the file system.
- ⌘-o to open files instead of hitting the Enter-key.
- Sort folders before files. Not mixing them.
- Clock/Date format (I want the date also to be visible).
- Manual refresh option for (share) folders.
- etc.
I have high hopes up for Snow Leopard. Hope that Finder gets a real good overhaul.
