- Enables you to reorganise files and directories into virtual directories
- or 'Groups'. Groups and their contents are displayed to the user in a file
- manager style lister. Files can be accessed using the mouse and user-defined
- actions can be assigned to different filetypes.
-
- Items within a particular Group can be physically stored absolutely anywhere
- (e.g. hard-disk, cd-rom, floppy etc.) yet they appear as if they all belong
- to the same directory. If you have a hard-drive and/or a large collection of
- cd's or floppies, Formation works like a an interactive disk catalogue
- allowing easy cross-referencing of files by theme.
-
- Formation provides a sophisticated search engine which includes filters for
- text strings, dates and filetypes. The results of each search can be saved
- to a Formation Group, copied to a new drawer or archived.
-
- Now includes DIRECTORY CACHING option for seamless browsing of removable media!
