Publisher's Description
From Infinite Nexus Software:
Compare Folders is a powerful utility designed to compare two folders and tell you which files and folders are the same, which are new, and which have been modified. This saves you the effort of reading through lists in the Finder and using Get Info to sort it all out.
Compare Folder's comparison engine is threaded to work efficiently and allows you to use the Comparison Selector Sheet to customize which attributes to compare or ignore. Features such as a clean, intuitive, Aqua interface with robust drag and drop support, Item Actions (Open, Reveal in Finder, Get Info, Delete, Rename, Lock/Unlock, Inspect, Copy To..., Upload to iDisk, Archive, FilePeek), built-in Get Info windows, an Item Inspector and seamless integration to open any item you click on make it a polite OS X citizen with flexibility at your fingertips. All of this and more without leaving a single window. .Mac support gives you easy access to back up or share files you've compared.
What's new in this version:
- Added visual highlighting to folder icons during drag and drop
- Enabled truncation for last visible line for item paths in the Get Info window (10.5+ only)
- Fixed "Copy To..." not replacing files
- When clicking Dock icon (or re-entering app), if there's no main window it re-opens automatically now
- Fixed drag and drop on folder icons not updating Recent Folders menu (and document)
- Fixed copied item not appearing in status text
- Fix... See all new features

"Does what the name says - and gives a nice overview."
Version: Compare Folders 3.4.2
Pros
Does what the name says - and gives a nice overview.
Cons
I have none so far.
-
"Very Competent Software"
Version: Compare Folders 3.4.2
Pros
Does exactly what it is supposed to do, and does it well. If you have more than on computer, or move files around a lot, it's a bargain. Features that make it very useful for managing files, separate drives, thumb drives, you name it.
Cons
none that I have found.
Summary
I keep my life on my Macs. I use CF to make sure I'm not wasting disk space with duplications, but also to assure I don't get rid of an important file by mistake. It's indispensable for version control, where a historical sequence must be maintained. It works, it's easy but powerful with file management tools, not just comparisons.
