Directory Opus 9
Carol Haynes:
Thanks for modifying your reply - disagreement isn't a problem but lets try and keep civil folks.
Hirudin:
I am luckily not the one who has been given the job of defending DO against zridling's nonsense, but I think I'd have a hard time keeping my reply to a post like the one above civil...
Installation speed? Give me a break!
XYPlorer doesn't do dual panes does it? End of story for me.
Does XYPlorer do FTP? If not, DO is way faster than XY when it comes to FTPing.
tomos:
Any takers for the DOpus advantages short-list ?

Ooops,
I didn't mean to stir things up any more than already shaken/stirred
I did want to say,
but for some reason didn't in last post, was -
to be fair, while the DO developers may have an unhelpful approach at times towards liscencing/attitude towards the public at large, I dont think it's fair or helpful to say they "presume registered users to be thieves and pirates".
I was actually seriously interested in hearing the advantages of DOpus from someone who knows both programmes. (of course maybe I should just go back reread the thread :-\ )
I'll probably get the DO upgrade eventually (or sooner!) but I think it's about equal the cost of XY so...
But as Hirudin says without dualpane...
Dirhael:
I'll see if I can write up a list sometime during the weekend. I own licensed copies of both programs (+ Total Commander... yes, I'm a file manager addict :P) so it shouldn't be to much of a problem making a comparison.

I'm with you Dirhael. Hi my name is Nomadin and I am a file manager addict (FMA). I probably need FMAA. ;D It is really a sad affliction that ultimately costs me money, but none-the-less, I still enjoy playing with the programs. It goes way back to the Amiga days with the Amiga versions of Directory Opus.
I suspect that I will still register DO and it is possible that I will adopt it as my main manager. There is much to like and it is so tweakable. We shall see...
