XYplorer
is a multi-tabbed file manager for Windows 98/NT/ME/2000/XP/Vista/W7, featuring
a very powerful file search, versatile preview facilities, a highly customizable
interface, and a large array of unique ways to efficiently automate frequently
recurring tasks. It's extremely fast and light, it's innovative, and it's fun!
XYplorer (formerly known as TrackerV3) is a hybrid file manager that combines
features found in navigational and orthodox file managers. Instead of dual
folder panes, it features a file tree and a tabbed interface for folders that
supports drag-and-drop between tabs.
A central feature is the hideable information panel at the bottom that can be
used to view file properties and contents, generate reports, preview files (PNG,
TIF, GIF, JPG, TGA, PSD, ICO; WAV, MP3, MPEG, AVI; TTF, PFB; HTML, EML, MSG,
DOC, XLS, PDF, and many other formats) and find files.
The search facility supports Boolean logic, Regular Expressions, whole word and
fuzzy matching, binary string search, and multiple location search. Some unique
features are the Catalog, (which is a user created panel of links to files,
folders, URLs, and similar entries), Scripting (which allows user to create
stored sets of commands, similar to a macro), and UDC (User Defined Commands)
(which allow user to create a limited set of customized commands).

Changes in XYplorer 9.30 (15-Jul-2010):
* Folder Tree. Now the tree state can optionally be fully retained across
sessions. So when reopening XYplorer you find your tree exactly (all expanded
nodes, selected node, scroll position) as you left it last time. Which other
file manager can do this?
* Thumbnails Caching. Improved cache management now auto-adjusts the cache to
any renamed or moved folders. No thumbnail has to be created again anymore just
because you renamed or moved a folder.
* Color Filters. Now you can optionally apply the color filter patterns to files
only and thus avoid that folders are colored when they match a pattern.
* Image Preview. Now the frame count is displayed for animated GIFs.
* Media Preview. Now you can optionally play only the beginning of a sound or
video file, and then stop, loop, or auto-jump to the next file (depending on the
Loop settings). The number of seconds to be played can be freely defined.
* Folder Tree. Now can optionally expand or collapse the current tree node by a
single click on the name. Saves you many clicks.
* Creating New Files. Now you can create a bunch of new files in one go by
simply entering a list of names into a multi-line edit field.
* Statusbar. Now you can hide the Statusbar.
* Find Files. The interface is now 100 pixels wider so that you have more space
for your search patterns.
* PDF Thumbnails. PDF thumbnail blow ups can now be enlarged to an actually
readable size. The same holds for any other format whose thumbnails are driven
by a shell extension.
* Drag'n'Drop Context Menu. The new command "Go to Dragged Item" allows you to
go to the dragged item's containing folder and select the item, or simply open
the folder if the item is a folder. A typical use-case would be when dragging
items or paths from other apps into XYplorer. It's a kind of "Go to by
Drag'n'drop" -- revolutionary and very useful if you ask me.
