New Features in FileTiger 1.30
RENAME now features wild card masks, allowing you to rename sets of files quickly, especially
useful for managing digital pictures. You can add text, such as "Birthday Party " to the beginning (or end, or both) of a
set of filenames, or change all selected filenames to all upper case or all lower case.
"List file details to Clipboard" can list file date, time, size, and name to clipboard, one file per line.
Columns are separated by tabs, so a file list can be imported into a spreadsheet, a database, or a table in a word processor.
"Copy path to clipboard" copies the selected folder's full path to the clipboard. This is handy when you have to enter a long path into another program that won't let you browse quickly to a special folder.
"Copy path to clipboard" can copy the currently-selected folder path to the clipboard. It's handy for capturing and pasting long paths into other programs that can't navigate directories easily.
The VIEW right-click option can now view multiple files, up to the same limit as edit/open.
The help file has been rewritten and expanded in HTML-help format.
Additional editions of the help file are also available, as a printable
PDF.
