Introduction
FileExplorer is a free add-in for Delphi 2005, which provides Explorer-like functionality in a dockable
window inside the IDE. Some of the features include:
- Fully dockable, just like the standard IDE Windows, including support for
the IDE's Desktop's feature, auto-hide, etc.
- Smart Resize, which changes the window layout depending on its location.
- Drag and Drop from FileExplorer to many parts of the IDE (Project Manager, Code Editor, etc)
- Jump to the current Project directory, the active File's directory, or any directory in your VCL or .NET Library Path.
- Open a Command Prompt or Windows Explorer in the selected directory.
Requirements
Basically, FileExplorer requires Delphi 2005. If you can run Delphi 2005, you should be OK for FileExplorer.
