One of the Mac’s oldest and most respect utilities has just been updated and Jon Gotow of St. Clair Software discusses the longevity and popularity of Default Folder X. Jon explains how Default Folder has kept up with the evolution of the Mac OS, adding new functionality to Open and Save dialog boxes the whole time and outlasting all comers. With the addition of Spotlight tagging, Default Folder X 4.0 is the most sophisticated and useful version yet. Jon covers his approach of writing software he needs and wants, why this version of Default Folder is one of the very few pay-for upgrades in the program’s history and reviews the entire St. Clair Software product line.
