DT Pro "classification" - ecodoc

In my humble view, version tracker is probably an inappropriate place for detailed wishlists and discussions about minute functionality of products. Perhaps this is best directed to forums on the developers website or in reply to the original comment here by Mr.Jobs!<p>Many if not Most people use version tracker to get a sense of what the products claim to do and the comments from users to broadly validate or refute these claims. <p>Without doubt DEVON is a unique and flexible product that performs a really useful service especially for the academic user. In my expereince the developers have been very interested and responsive to user comments. I am confident about its growing functionality over future versions. Obviously not all its features will be equally useful to all users.

DT Pro "classification" - Steven P. Jobs

"Being able to easily create and delete different "virtual views" of items, hierarchical or not, independent of location, would increase my productivity with DT Pro more than adding Spotlight support."

Of course, opening up the DT entries to Spotlight would make Smart Folders possible, both inside and outside the app, which would be a way to implement "virtual views"...

DT Pro "classification" - philslade

The extra flexibility mentioned as a potential improvement to DT Pro reminds me of the capabilities of Xerox Special Information Systems' Analyst and Assistant. 'Information Centers' worked like virtual folders, as the application used several basic hyperlinks for info management including one similar to the inclusion in a folder/directory. But users could define thousands of different link types (in two directions) and write simple but powerful rules to manage masses of those hyperlinks between any number of items, in addition to managing them by hand, relying of various tools including big windows showing forests of labeled links. It was quite something...
