So, and this is really targeted at Bart unless you two decide to add it as show topic: I am aware that there are applications such as PathFinder and Forklift that provide similar functionality (and more) but it is so much easier to simply use the Finder and not have to worry with another application for this one feature. Reading the comments on the TotalFinder forum, a lot of people seem to be of the opinion that “We did not have SIP before El Capitan and didn’t have a problem so we don’t see a need for it now”. That utility is TotalFinder.īoth of these developers discuss the issue on their websites and, although they are clear to say that are not recommending turning off SIP, they explain how (partially?) do it so that their applications will continue to work.

I am not a programmer but I understand that the way this utility works is that it injects code into the Finder, thus modifying the Finder as opposed to a stand alone application. This allows me to easily drag & drop files from one location to another. This utility allows you to have two (or more) finder tabs side by side and active in the Finder.

Marta is actually similar in that regards. If you know JetBrains IDEs, you also know how customizable they are. Okay, this is crazy! 🤯 My initial thought was not too bad. Then, another week later, while I was looking for the public repository to raise an issue, I found a few information about the author: Great tool! I was even recommending Marta to a colleague of mine, with whom I occasionally share tool recommendations. One last thing that reminded me of JetBrains IDEs, was the fact that I could just start typing to filter items in the Recent Locations popup menu: Just type a search term, which will be shown in the bottom right, and then navigate with arrow keys through the results:Īnother reason is the Lookup search, which is shown in the upper middle of the application and allows to search for just anything: That was mostly because of the way how you search and select file items. My first and foremost thought about Marta was: Wow! This feels a bit like working in JetBrains Rider / IntelliJ IDEA. Marta comes with dual mode (similar to FarManager), an integrated terminal, tab support, customizable columns, and DirStat (similar to WinDirStat): Meet MartaĪt some point, Marta popped up in my Twitter timeline.
