A file manager is, at its simplest, a utility program which presents
lists of files and allows the user to perform actions of some kind
on those files. File managers are useful for moving files between
folders, making backup copies of files, viewing pictures and playing
sounds, running other utility programs on lists of files, deleting
unwanted files and many other "housekeeping" tasks.
Directory Opus goes beyond the simple file manager metaphor, and
offers you a complete replacement for Windows Explorer and many
other utility programs for handling FTP, ZIP, viewing files and
images, running slideshows and more. It provides you with all this
within a user-friendly and fully-configurable environment within
which you can access and manage your important data with a minimum
of effort. Harness the power of your computer like never before!
-
Designed for Windows:
Directory Opus 9 has been designed and written from the ground up
especially for Windows. Full support for the latest Windows Operating
Systems from 2000, XP, 2003, Windows Vista, Windows 7 and Server 2008.
-
Familiar Interface: Unlike many other
file managers, Directory Opus defaults to an Explorer-compatible user
interface. You can immediately begin using Directory Opus, with no
learning curve, because it will feel extremely familiar and comfortable
to you. But, you will find that you can easily configure the interface
to fully personalize your system including the use of dual file displays
or multiple displays for special folders.
-
Fully Configurable Menus, Toolbars
and Hotkeys: Directory Opus supports unlimited menus and
toolbars. Toolbars can be attached to any side of a Lister display or
can be independent free-floating windows. Directory Opus supports
user-configurable hotkeys, both for use within Opus, and globally
throughout the system. The Windows key is also fully supported!
-
Built-in ZIP and FTP Support: Throw
away your external ZIP and FTP programs - Directory Opus lets you access
ZIP files and FTP sites as easily as local folders! You can copy files
from anywhere and to anywhere - even from an FTP site straight into a
ZIP file!
-
True Multitasking: The
object-orientated multi-threaded design gives you unheralded power to
perform multiple operations at the same time. Why should you have to
wait for your computer to finish? Now you can begin one task and
immediately move on the the next. Zip one folder whilst unzipping into
another, at the same time as you are downloading files from a remote FTP
site and copying yet more files between your local folders,
independently and reliably.
- Support for Common Image and Sound
Files: Directory Opus supports most common image and sound file
formats. It provides a quick yet powerful image viewer which lets you
view your pictures without having to load a large paint program! It also
provides a Thumbnails-style view of your folders, allowing you preview a
large number of images to quickly locate the one you are looking for.
- Built-in Viewer Pane: Quickly
view pictures, text files and other types of files in the Opus Viewer
pane directly in the Lister window. Opus supports a viewer plug-in
system so you can add new drivers for the specific file formats you wish
to view as they become available. Directory Opus comes with plug-ins for
many popular image and document file formats. Third party libraries can
extend the viewing capabilities to include Word and Excel documents,
Acrobat files and many other types of files. A free SDK is available for
developers to write their own viewer plug-ins.
- Enhanced Support for Digital Images:
More than any other file manager, Directory Opus give you full access to
the hidden details of the EXIF format for images from digital cameras.
You can now sort images by any field and view all the information about
your photos from shooting time, shutter speed, aperture, subject
distance, metering type and more...
- Enhanced Finding and Searching:
Directory Opus lets you quickly locate the files you need, with an
extremely powerful search system. Does Explorer let you search for Led
Zeppelin MP3 files recorded at a bit rate of 160 sometime between last
Thursday and today? Opus does!
- Powerful Internal Command Set:
With Directory Opus you are not just limited to functions given to you
by the programmer. Directory Opus's functions are built upon the most
powerful file management command language available in any file manager.
You can harness this easily to create your own functions commands to
perform the actions that YOU want to do.
There are many more features
available in Directory Opus 9, far too many to list here. Why not download
a
free evaluation copy and see for
yourself? We guarantee you won't want to go back to Explorer! |
