Also, the auto resizing implementation is incomplete, in that it doesn't offer min and max column size settings, so when auto resizing is enabled, many columns look awfully narrow. However, it has a horrible default appearance, and even after substantial customizations, it still looks kind of crappy. Even " open ~" could open in Path Finder, if you let it be the default file manager that was a nice surprise, and I'm not sure about the mechanism (maybe this? Doesn't sound right though). It offers column auto resizing, hidden in the view options of the column view (accessible via ⌘J). More discussions about "features" at the end.) (Yeah, I know its myriad power user features, but I need the basic ones, and I don't see them. Even more shockingly, it offers no option to show file extensions! Tell me again that this is a power user tool. Also, it doesn't hide items with the hidden flag, which is kind of insane. It has a column view, but doesn't seem to offer column auto resizing. 2įorkLift: Again, dual-pane, and doesn't seem to offer a single-pane mode, but you can drag the pane divider all the way to the right to hide the second one (including the divider). Also, why do most of them call themselves commanders? Another thing that I can't fathom. Not sure if one rips off the other (looks like DCommander is older). By the way, Command One and DCommander are suprisingly similar, both appearance-wise and functionality-wise. If I just want to stay in a single directory, and painstakingly navigate in and out, I'll just do everything in the terminal, thank you.

Column view enables fast navigation and provides a full picture of a directory tree, which is one of the two reasons I use Finder (i.e., a file manager), the other being Quick Look. Easier to copy/cut and paste? What a joke - how often do you do that to justify having two panes in your face at all times? Might as well spend the time to do a column view. What's the advantage of being dual-pane? I can't fathom. Here's a very brief (batch) review.ĭisk Order, Commander One, DCommander, and CRAX Commander: No column view. I tried everything listed in the TotalFinder alternatives post on TotalFinder forums. So I went out to look for full Finder replacements.
Anyway, even after running TotalFinder, it's still that damn old stupid Finder, the columns of which I have to manually resize all the time just a little bit nicer. XtraFinder has additional problems like folder-on-top not working, window config occasionally forgotten, and the long-standing issue of shitty Chrome-style tab implementation (basically stacking a separate layer on top of each window) that shows a visible white divider, so I'm running TotalFinder right now, not sure about whether it would be abandoned completely next year. Just like QLEnableTextSelection in, I guess. Seems that a hole they are both utilizing has been closed. The unexpected part is that even after disabling the Debugging Restrictions part of SIP ( csrutil enable -without debug), XtraFinder and TotalFinder 1 both can't auto resize columns. Long live TotalFinder!Īs expected, it's hard to get Finder to work the way I want it to on El Capitan. And holy cow, it fixed automatic column resizing! The fix isn't perfect - there's actually a visible delay before resizing, but I'm happy again.

Just as I was finishing this post, an update to TotalFinder came. Update (updated even before I published the article).
