The text reads like all the other DS_Store wipers, but actually BlueHarvest is different, because it lets you

1. *prevent* DS_Store files rather than having to choose a folder you want to clean on a manual keypress and

2. it lets you prevent DS_Store (AND other OSX as well as Windows invicibles!!) depending on whether the volume is a network drive (...which is a standard OSX functionality anyway...) or an external drive and (THIS IS WHAT I, and I guess EVERYONE, need) decides on creating DS_Store depending on the FILESYSTEM. I would have liked more flexibility on this, though (configurability WHICH FSes in detail)

For me, the latter is THE solution. I don't want no OSX invincibles on any fat-formatted or windows formatted drive, because that's usually the USB flash disks and network drives I use for multiplatforming - why else would I work with a non MacOS formatted drive!

So, this is the tool you need, all the rest I've seen is pathetic.
