Path Finder: More than a Finder replacement
Merlin Mann | Dec 28 2006
Given the comments and emails I receive whenever I use Path Finder in a demo, it's clear to me that people are hungry for ways to improve and customize their stock Finder. PF's appearance in my latest MacBreak has been no exception. So, for folks that haven't heard my pimping before or who haven't been following the recent additions to the inarguably crufty uber-app, here's a tricked-out Path Finder window, showing the new tab functionality, plus all the optional drawers, tchotchkes, and finials that can be displayed.
For more on why I dig Path Finder, read 7 things I like about Path Finder for OS X. And be sure to check back soon on MacBreak (HD 1080 Podcast feed); Leo and I have a segment on Path Finder that should be airing soon. Addition 2006-12-28 10:31:43 Neil makes a great point in comments. I have this terrible habit of only ever showing Path Finder with all of its features on, and all its optional frippery enabled. In fact, PF needn't look like a functional salad bar at all, and the enclosed is closer to how I configure it for my own everyday usage.
Thanks, Neil. 20 Comments

 My big question for PF...Submitted by steve mcfarland (not verified) on December 29, 2006 - 1:33pm.
My big question for PF users: you guys are running this instead of the Finder and launching at login? And what is the advantage for me in hiding my desktop? Where are you dumping new files? I'm desperately in need of a logical document & file management structure and something in me feels like this could be the solution. » POSTED IN:
