Product Description:
FolderOrg is an AppleScript Folder Action that is organizes files and folders by moving them into dated subfolders. Helps to keep files and folders organized by the day they were added, not created or modified.
Very useful for download folders, drop boxes, and even the desktop folder!
What's new in this version:
- Renamed FolderOrg from FolderOrg X. OS 9 is long gone and is no longer supported, so no need for the distinction.
- Better compatibility with Safari download files with the .download extension
- Opening FolderOrg directly from the Finder will allow the user to set some preferences
- Option to open the dated subfolder in the Finder when an item is added
- Option to activate (bring to front) the Finder when an item is added
- Option to set the modification date for the added item to the date and time the item was added
- Can operate as a 'helper app'; can be set as a post-processing app. This might be useful for FireFox/Camino and other apps that allow post processing of files
- Much faster performance; many file operations performed with UNIX shell instead of the Finder
Operating System Requirements:
This product is designed to run on the following operating systems:
- Mac OS X 10.3.9
- Mac OS X 10.3
Additional Requirements:
- Mac OS X 10.3 Panther or later

FolderOrg works great for me ... one request. i have FolderOrg working on my default Safari downloads directory, and when the file finishes downloading, then is transfered to the date folder, Finder opens and displays the date folder the file was moved to. is it possible to turn this feature on or off?

- great ... one request
in the rare case where there's already a file with the same name in the destination folder.
Of course, it shouldn't be difficult to fix that by adding a number to the name of the new file.
Now what I really like about it is that the script can be edited.
For example I added, after the folder is opened in the Finder:
tell application "Finder" to select every item of added_items
So if that folder contains many files already, I will be able to find the newly added file easily.
