As a long-time and frequent user of File Buddy in most of its versions I downloaded (and paid for v9b). Sorry I paid. I don't like the interface nearly as well as 8, and when I tried to stop a search in mid-stream I had to force quit to get out of the hang. Back to v8 (which I kept), but I've lost the plug-in for contextual menus in the meantime. My advice is to wait til the b goes away, maybe even to 9.1. That's what I'll do now.
