Existing users, 
DF was indispensible back in the pre-OSX days and was one of the first things i'd install on any new system. the OSX version however is a pale shadow of its former self.
where classic DF did actually "enhance" open/save dialogues by building new features directly into the dialogue, OSX DF instead attaches a 'fischer price'-like icon bar to the side of open/save dialogues, which looks completely out of place and, like an errant child, is forever prone to becoming separated from its parent - move a dialogue across the screen and DF folder stays where it is for a while, before looking round in panic and belatedly rushing across the screen to into the waiting arms of "mother".
it's all horribly clunky and [for me anyway] makes DF unusable on OSX. shame! - because as i mentioned above, this was one of the greats, back in the classic days.
as a slightly off-topic parting shot; all the functionality DF offers should be built into the OS in the first place, but waiting for apple to FTFF is, as we all know, another futile exercise!

Obviously, you've never developed a piece of software for OS X, brindsley, and because of that vacuum in your professional experience, most of us will take your criticism with the proverbial grain of salt. I've been using the Mac since the time of the "Fat Mac" and have used Default Folder since its inception in the good ol' "Classic" days. Its OS X iteration is just as good as it has always been, so do take a laxative and get some rest, OK? Just remember, prunes are good for you!Reply to This
