Xfile is the only file manager for OS X capable of seamlessly handling all file systems — fdesc, HFS+, HFS+ case-sensitive, NFS, UFS, volfs, ZFS. Xfile is the only file manager capable of detailing all file information available on OS X — and offering full editing capabilities for all these system features. And you probably haven't heard of half of them.
And it's also incredibly stable, safe, and fast. But you probably knew that.
All applications are engineered to run 'as is' - nothing needs to be copied/moved to another folder.
This download contains the Xfile System and a few additional applications for your edification. The full Xfile package contains a great many more.
Documentation for the 100+ ACP applications and tools is accessible at any time through the help menu of any of the applications.
All you do is double-click 'ACP.dmg' to mount the Xfile Test Drive on your desktop.
This is a 'Tiger or later' (Leopard, Snow Leopard, Lion) build of Xfile. If you're still running Panther or earlier then you need a different version. (You also really need to upgrade your OS.)
This Test Drive build is optimised and tweaked with the developer tools included with the Xcode 3.1.1 update. But it's built for Tiger, so graphics will be to some extent of 'Tiger' quality. The 'real' software comes in both Tiger and Snow Leopard/Lion builds so you can get the latest and greatest. There's really not much difference but there is a difference.
Keep the DMG handy: you'll need it to mount the Xfile Test Drive again when you reboot.
This is a trial download only. Not all features are enabled. That some features are lacking is going to ultimately be rather annoying. The software will also run out after a while — but it will be a great while. And the software won't leave any cruft or data remnants on your system. If you want to enjoy the full functionality of Xfile and the other applications you should purchase your copy.
Check the usual suspects if you uninstall — ~/Library/Preferences/com.rixstep.*.plist being the prime candidate. And search for *rixstep* in your home area. Nothing's left on your system in stealth.
