14 DAY TRIAL // Monday should be celebrated as Update Day for Mac users. Aside Apple's releasing the long awaited Mac OS X update 10.5.2. for Leopard users, as well as a security patch for Tiger users, LikeMac Group has released Disk Order 3.0. The double-pane file manager update for Mac OS X adds new plug-ins and a refined Editor/Viewer.
Plug-ins worth noting first and foremost include 'iPod Browse', which allows you to view as well as download music from your iPod's music library, 'Rar Unpacker' which enables users to decompress files in the respective format, while 'Send To' Mail/Application/Folder provides quick email or file sending to any app or folder as fast as you can say... well, click.
The advanced "finder" uses a built-in FTP client that handles archives like folders. This allows users to manage their files much easier and faster than before, since you'll only need one app for the process of connect-rename-extract. Disk Order still offers all its usual features, such as Get Info, Copy/Move/Delete, View and Edit.
So, here are all the added stuff, according to LikeMac:
- Completely refined built-in Viewer and Editor - Added View As Binary - Greatly improved View As Hex (opens any big file in less than a second) - Color customization is now present (text, background, selection...) - Personalize the main window with the available presets (Brushed metal, Smooth, Aqua etc) - Added capability to compress many archive formats (tar, tgz, gz, bz2.. or plugins) - One-click decompress archive (handy Decompress icon in toolbar) - Customizable 'Send To' menu - Added support for third-party plugins for 'Send To' menu - Added support for third-party compressor/decompressor plugins (support of additional archive formats) - Double click mouse to open new tab! - New Plugins Added - iPod Browse (List your iPod right in Disk Order! By artist, album or playlist... Download music.) - Rar Unpacker (Simply browse and/or unpack RAR archives) - Send To Mail - Send To Application - Send To Folder
Disk Order 3.0's time-proven double-panel interface helps to manage files easily, open archives like plain folders, download/upload files from/to FTP servers, compare directories, batch rename files, while all is done with your custom keystrokes. New users will have to fork for $30 to get their hands on Disk Order 3.0, but if you're a registered owner already, the upper-mentioned features will be free.
