an update -

small bugfixes (my bad) and (hopefully) vastly improved tree performance

added functionality to validate the target path, and to open the target folder (click on the 'target:' label)

This is good stuff!  How come I haven't seen this yet?

Just FYI, Dopus can do this using their "collections" feature.  There was another discussion about these kinds of features, i think tranglos started it.

But I like this, it's going on my flash drive.

So a simple Open folder window (allowing multiple folders to be selected)
Then read all files from inside
Select destination folder and then copy all files to there.

Do you want all the files copied into one destination folder (flat) or did you want the directories' structures selected preserved?

Hi skwire,

Do this app File Bucket have the capabilities to preserved directories structures and move or copy into the destination folder.

Thanks,
probenet

Not currently.  It's designed for a flat list of files.

Since FileBucket now handles folders as well, the methods could be renamed from "Copy files" and "Move files" to "Copy" and "Move".

BTW: What about "Delete" as an additional method for File Bucket? :) Could do the same as Deletist.

Good point.  I'll change that.

I really really really hate messing with user's files more than I have to.  If I did add something like this it would be a "Delete to Recycle Bin" method.

What large post indeed. Wonderful.  :P

I would like to know if is possible or have now the additional possibility to move folder or archives, or to simply create the shortcuts (of the folders/archves selected) , instead of copying the folders. the very best would be the three options.

Best Regards.

First impressions :

1) I think the program is better is more flexible. Is not an addon of the explorer. Need specific execution and don't have quickeys.
2) The program don't have drag and drop. Need a good user.

 :P

With sort on Filename or Path column, the upper list view sorts files and folders mixed. That results in a quite cluttered list sometimes.

Would it be possible to sort folders and files separately - folders first and then the files?

v1.1.0 - 2010-07-10
    * When selecting a folder in the tree, folders are now added at the top of
      the upper listview instead of being interspersed with the files.  Sorting
      with the column headers will still intersperse the two. (Thanks, Lesmo16)

Love it thanx, did a review of it on my site (http://www.rgdot.com...es-with-file-bucket/).
One thing I mentioned in the review is that any filtering must be done before files are added (?) but since the filter button is on the right it can get confusing and not go with a left to right flow.
