Tactile Interrogator is a powerful file management software designed for advanced users. It allows users to navigate, organize and manage their files with ease.
If you're a power user of Mac OS X, you'll definitely want to check out Tactile Interrogator. It's the first graphical command shell designed specifically for you, giving you an intuitive and informative view of the powerful Unix underpinnings of Mac OS X. You'll still get all the usual Mac OS information, but now you'll also have access to an array of colored icons of varying sizes that make it easy to view your directories at a glance. This includes highlighting recent changes, excessive disk consumption, and unprotected files, no matter where they're located.
Tactile Interrogator also provides detailed information displays that include all five different file dates, all four status words, descriptions of each file in a chain of symlinks or aliases, and aggregates over directory contents - not just size, but earliest and latest dates, most and least restrictive permissions, and deepest and widest subdirectories. And because information is cached for rapid access, you'll never be left waiting for critical data to load.
This software also features keystrokes for most operations, making it even easier to use. However, you should be aware that there is a 30-day free trial to test out its features before committing to it.
In terms of updates, the latest release fixes a bug that caused file copies, especially slow ones, to crash. There were also some other copy-related bugs that were addressed. Program startup and general operation have also been made faster, and new Dir windows will now always start sorting and hiding as set in Preferences > View, rather than inheriting from the previous dir window. Overall, Tactile Interrogator packs a lot of power and functionality into a visual interface that's perfect for power users.
