Need Total Commander Equivalent For Mac Os X?


Try Disk Order 1.1!

LikeMac Group has released Disk Order 1.1, the latest version of a double-panel utility for managing files and folders on Macintosh. The application allows users to do all necessary file operations inside of a single window with two opposite file lists, the way mostly preferred by users who switched to Mac from PC where they used Total Commander or some kind of equivalent program.

Disk Order v. 1.1 is a utility that gives users the ability to manage files on their Macs just the same way as in Finder but without any need to open many windows for different folders. Having two file lists (panels) hosted in one window, the user can easily open one folder on left panel and another one on right panel and perform any file operation between them.

For example copy some files from one to another or compare them for same file names. All this Disk Order presents with the Mac Aqua with full support of Drag-n-Drop technology. The program differs from other file managers in Macintosh world by its capability to manage files without mouse, that is using only keyboard.

The user can customize his own shortcuts to make the application more comfortable. This may be helpful not only for Mac switchers but for notebook owners who dislikes using touchpad when operating files.

Disk Order offers some advanced file manager features, such as built-in FTP client, command line and file previewer. Disk Order is intended for everyone who need to make a lot of different file operations in a single application. Ability to copy, move files, launch applications, preview pictures and connect to FTP servers can reduce the amount of applications the user need to run at the same time when working on a particular task.

Having customizable appearance and user friendly interface it makes the work fast and effective.
