TotalFinder – The missing app of Mac OS X

If someone asks me what I like about Mac OS X, I’d have so many things to say. But I if someone asks me to mention the missing features of Mac OS X, the first thing would come into my mind is the poor experience of Finder. It is the default Finder, that is never satisfactory to me.

But then I found TotalFinder, the amazing app comes with features exactly what you’ve ever dreamed. This fantastic app comes with some real good features to make your Machintosh experience satisfactory.

Features
Tabs: It lets you open tab instead of a new window just like Google Chrome web browser.
Dual Mode: You’ll find the feature interesting whenever you try to move file.
Folders on Top: You don’t need to sort each folder by Kind now. This will make it easier.
System Files: By default Mac OS X doesn’t show System Files. Though there are commands for that from terminal, but probably that’s only for advance users. But TotalFinder brings this feature to you too.
Visor: Make TotalFinder just one key press away. This feature is disabled by default. Check this if you are interested on the functionality http://visor.binaryage.com/
Cut & Paste: I know, all of us were missing this vital feature for so long. This prominent feature is also brought to you by TotalFinder.

Advanced Feature
Asepsis: You can redirect creation of .DS_Store files. You can disable/enable creation of .DS_Store files on Network Disks.

You can download TotalFinder from http://totalfinder.binaryage.com/

Install Dropbox from source in Debian Squeeze

Currently I faced a problem setting up Dropbox package In Debian Squeeze. So it I installed it from source.
To install it from source you’ll need the following package (or equivalent)
libnautilus-extension-dev

install it from terminal:

 sudo apt-get install libnautilus-extension-dev 

then change your directory where the nautilus-dropbox-0.6.7.tar.bz2 resides and type the following in terminal:

 tar xvjf nautilus-dropbox-0.6.7.tar.bz2
 cd nautilus-dropbox-0.6.7
 ./configure


it may show error like this

configure: error: couldn’t find docutils

then install the missing component/s and then again do start from where it crashed last time.

 ./configure
 make
 make install


and we are done!
Keeping the source file is recommended. Because may be now you want to delete/remove/uninstall it To do that, change directory to the dropbox folder and type:

 sudo make uninstall

and it’s gone!
