Listary has also been updated. DC announcement: Listary Update: The new and improved Listary 3 released. It now behaves a little bit more like FBX or PowerPro's equivalent feature. The Web site hasn't been updated except for the new files. Listary is portable, which may interest some people. I don't know quite how portable - ideally I'd like it to have favourite folders on a USB stick, which would mean that it would have to know about variable drive letters.
The "call your text editor feature" has been removed and put into a separate freeware called Text Editor Anywhere, but there doesn't seem a link for that on the Web site at present.

+1 for FileBox Extender from here too -- although I'm currently playing with DM2, courtesy of the PortableApps build of it. It's not as good, but the portable-ness is a bonus.

The fine print:
– After you purchase Direct Folders Pro it may be used indefinitely.
– Upgrades to future versions of the software will be free for the lifetime of the product.
– Direct Folders Pro is licensed per user, so if more people are going to use Direct Folders Pro you will need to purchase additional copies.
– Each license allows installation on all owned computers, and Direct Folders Pro may be used at exactly the same time on each of them.
– Transfer of a license to another owned computer is allowed.
– License activation isn’t required.

Hey @DesertEagle,
you may want to tell Alternatives.to that Direct Folders has risen again (as it's designated as "discontinued" on there):
