badly enough, it isn't free  :( It's even  85 euro, what is a lot of money for me

[edit] It seems to me that the folder option is just an advanced filter option, no 'virtual folder' a la Vista thing.

It's mentioned that my suggestion would be like the virtual folders in Vista. I looked around on the internet, but i can't find an alternativ for this. Does anyone know if something like this exists (i mean an alternative?) I remember that during the launch of XP, some functions of XP has been coded for Win98

Yes, but when i'm working on an 'activity' (like volunter-work, or an organisation i work for) i want to see only that files and i want to see them all. Searching isn't my main point, it's organizing.

I'm not sure if it exists ... i've spend the whole day to search for something like this.

* Wintree can tag files, but only tag or untag.
* there are some dms-systems (document managment systems), but that's a whole different approach.

The idea is to have only in every folder a xml with data (such as "doc1.doc" tag="house, money"). The program act only as an explorer & explorer with a filter. A basic explorer isn't hard to build (there are several snippets around), but the problem is the 'virtual explorer'. This one reads the xml-files and sorts the labels together.

In fact, it is a way to enter your files trough a database-system.

We all know what a mess your pc can be ... you're looking for a file, that's somewhere and you can't find it. I've searched over the internet for a program like this (and which i couldn't find, so i request it here :) ):

A program which is basically a explorer, but with the abillity to add a virtual treenode. Why? With such a program, you can store all your files by type (for example: all doc's in /docs, all xls in /xls etx). The "program" can add to each file a label (eg in a xml db or something) or labels. So you get an explorer like window like this:

+ by type (the physical tree, so is it on the HDD)
|   - /docs
|   - /xls
+ by subject (virtual tree)
|   - /car
|   - /work
etc

foobar1.doc and foobar2.doc are stored in /docs, but foobar1 is labeled as
car and foobar2 as work. foobar3.xls is in /xls and labeled as car.
Clicking on the different node's will result in something like:

+ by type
|   - /docs [foobar1.doc and foobar2.doc]
|   - /xls [foobar3.xls]
+ by subject
|   - /car [foobar1.doc and foobar3.xls
|   - /work [foobar2.doc]
etc

Unfinished Requests / Idea: chmod application
« Last post by eusebius on October 18, 2005, 08:26 AM »
Hey,

So far as i know, there's no software wich can change the chmod settings at my webspace in an advanced way. I mean a bit of software, wich sets differents settings to different files (eg *.jpg > 644, *.php > 755) and in different (sub)dirs. With the feature to store settings in a file.

Why? Because on my webspace i've hosted a blogsystem, and every time when i'm updating, i've to set al the values by hand ...  there are some applications (also shareware), but they don't look at the filetype.

Does a program like this exist? Is it possible to build?

gr,
