Unlimited & free. (source will be available later)
How to use it
FolderShaper can be used in 2 ways..
1. as a normal application
-- drop folders on the application window
2. as a Tracker add-on
-- right-click on a folder and choose
FolderShaper from the add-ons menu
You start by creating a set of template folders,
after which you can apply the looks/layout of
these, to any other folders. (except a few vital
system folders, /boot/home/Desktop, etc)
Install
FolderShaper can live anywhere on your BeOS disk,
but if you intend to use it as a Tracker add-on, you need to
put FolderShaper, or a link or copy of it, in
this folder.
Issues
- BeOS' Menu preferences have to be set to "Click to Open"
or the FolderShaper popup menu will just flash by,
not letting you choose anything.
- Sometimes FolderShaper has trouble re-opening a folder after having
shaped it. Nothing to worry about. Just open the folder manually.
- "Keep open" doesn't work when set to "Delete original folder".
