I read about this one a while back and it looks very promising. Features (as per their site): Dual pane view, preview info/view, ftp, Zip, GZip, Tar, Rar integration. $29.95, 15-day demo, www.binarynights.com it is at version 1.0.1 (6/2007). I will be giving it a look-see. I second the suggestion to have ForkLift included.

If you are in fact the Xfile developer then I commend you on hugely fixing/updating your site. I assure you, there was NO info on rixstep.com other than the 3 screenshots I borrowed, and a "buy it now" link. And nowhere did it say anything about a $45 version that didn't include the entire ACP. Now that I can try it, I'll give it a download and update the review accordingly. Cheers, Ross Fairly -

Besides that, it's supported only by a single and often rude developer (check his "Fairly" posting above). Try Pathfinder (and I don't work for them), or one of the other alternatives. While Xfile is fast, no amount of speed helps with essentially fly-by-night ops. Xfile is way overpriced, whether for its stand-alone or “package” versions.

You read well. The ACP costs $79 and that's 50+ Cocoa apps and another 30 command line progs and a text and web services prog. Xfile is only one program.
