ForkLift - advanced replacement Total Commander for Mac OS

A lot of guys complain about the lack of a Total Commander replacement under Mac OS and are not aware of the existence of the ForkLift file manager, which may well replace Total Commander.



Overview of features:

')

Supported Protocols

FTP, SFTP, WebDAV, S3, iDisk, SMB, AFP, NIS

The ability to mount a remote file system and work with it as with a local one. When editing files on a remote system in a local editor, the changes are immediately applied without the need for a separate confirmation of “upload a new version of the file?”.



It is also possible to mount any of the remote file systems as a local disk, so the files will be accessible from the system as local.







If you do not specify a password when connecting via SFTP, the default private key ~ / .ssh / id_rsa will be used, which is very convenient.



Bookmarks with remote servers are located on the left in the same list with local folders, and are available with one click. No need to look for them in the menu as in Total Commander.



Archives

7z, rar, zip, gz, bz2

Ability to view the contents of archives as ordinary folders (not for all types of archives).

Pack / Unpack.



Group rename

Allows you to rename files in groups according to a given mask:





Quick look

The same quick view, by pressing the spacebar, as in the Finder.

Allows you to quickly look into text files, including on remote systems.



Multithreading downloads and queues

You can customize multithreading downloads or set up queues by downloading files one by one.

Downloading a single file in multithreaded mode can be paused or canceled.





Uninstall programs

When you remove the .app package through ForkLift, a menu appears offering to delete the files associated with the program.

Usually, these are settings and cache in the home folder.



Folder synchronization

A simple replacement for rsync, with which you can compare file structures and synchronize them.



Customizable HotKeys

You can easily reassign hotkeys to make it easier for you to move from other file managers.

* A small trick: it is better to buy the program through the site, and not in the App Store. Since the version from the App Store does not know how to mount remote file systems as disks and always has an outdated version. True, I managed to first buy the program in the App Store, and then ask for the key for the version from the site.
