FileUtils

FileUtils provides some advanced file operations, available in macOS Finder contextual and toolbar action menus. While FiIeUtils is running, invoking Finder contextual or toolbar action menu will show additional items, each invoking specific file operation executed by FileUtils. Additional items shown in both Finder contextual and toolbar action menus are fully customizable, a user can choose which menu items will be shown and arrange them anyway one wants. FileUtils also provides Finder Services menu items for selected files, so each operation can be invoked from that menu too, as well as having assigned a specific keyboard shortcut (customizable in the System Settings/Preferences) and then invoked and executed on selected files in Finder with a keyboard, without using a mouse. Operations currently available in FileUtils: • Full POSIX file permissions, including SetUID, SetGID and Sticky bits and propagation of permissions down the folder hierarchy • Access Control List, for even finer file access control and permissions • Show effective file access for every user in the system • Modify file's dates and times (creation, modification, last access, added to folder) by modifying date/time components or timestamps • Multiple files batch rename with powerful and flexible renaming options • Size browser, hierarchically showing files based on their sizes, in the columns and graph view • Compare and synchronize two folders with powerful, yet simple and intuitive folder comparator • Compare files and folders using comparison application of your choice • Execute your own custom scripts, which selected files as input arguments and see eventual results as a textual output. FileUtils can execute UNIX scripts/binaries, AppleScript scripts and Automator workflows • Calculate file checksums, most common hash types available (MD2, MD4, MD5, SHA-1, SHA-256 variants…) • Delete files bypassing the Trash, using normal deletion or three standard deletion security methods • Archive files and expand archives, common archive types and compression methods are supported • Browse archives and expand only specific file/folder through hierarchical contextual and toolbar action menus in Finder • Create new "empty" files. Many file types are supported out-of-the-box, a user can add custom file types as well. Availability of some file types depends on installed applications • Create (absolute) symbolic link to files • Copy file full path and name in various ways, as URL, UNIX, HFS, Terminal, Windows… New operations and features are constantly being added.
