Description
Finger XP is a clone of Mac OS X Leopard's Finder applications but it is still in beta version, so don't be hoping that it would be perfect. Even matonga, the developer admitted that it's missing things. Here is what matonga said: "Finger XP is some sort of Finder clone. It's not an add-on for Explorer, but a file browser on it's own.It's missing lots of features yet, such as:
* Drag and drop.
* Create new folder.
* Cut, copy and paste files.
* Rename files/folders.
* Delete file/folders.
* Quicklook is not like that with folders and non-picture/pdf/document/video files.
* Quicklook-clone should allow to play videos, etc...
* Indeed quicklook should be a separate app (hey that's a good idea!)
* CoverFlow-like view should be hardware accelerated (OpenGL + P-Buffers?)
* res/coverflowLoading.png should be inside Test1.exe file
* Test1.exe should be FingerXP.exe instead.
* Finger XP should use same process with separate threads, to open different windows (for less resource consumption).
* etc..."

AWESOME! I will definitely use this if the Quick-Look clone comes out 1:1 to the Mac one, or even somewhere near.
