FileMatrix 3

FileMatrix description:

Manage your files using 2 to 10 vertical columns, and 20 boards (= sets of columns). Each column in each board can display the content of a different directory. Each column's status is saved.

Columns can be grouped to act in a similar manner as a menu: when you "open" a directory listed in a column, its content will be displayed in the column at its right. Also, when you go "up", the content of the directory will be displayed in the column at its left. Still, each column can be used to navigate individually.

Each column has its own navigation buttons. You can change what to do with the mouse, on a file. You can have 9 click and 6 drag operations at the same time.

Files are sorted by type: directories, links, programs, documents, and rest of files. For "programs" and "documents" you can change the recognized extensions, in the options file.

A file-viewer is integrated within the interface (with a variable height, that you can set), oriented for multimedia. You can play all music or movies in a directory with just one click (automatic play-list), or you can make your own play-list files.

It works on Windows2000/XP. For Windows2000 you must have "GdiPlus.dll" installed.
