Regard this as a beta release. This means that it's incomplete and buggy, although it's already much more functional than version 1. Most of the functionality from the original is available plus a whole lot more. If you choose to test this, please report back with your experiences, comments, suggestions. As an experiment, there's also a u3p file for thumb drives. It's taken quite a bit of work to achieve something like 80% Explorer functionality and will probably take just as long to get another 15%. Maybe I should go the route of a shell extension instead of trying to reinvent Windows Explorer? What do you think?

SE stands for Shell Extension. The extension adds six columns to the Details view of Windows Explorer: Total Size, Size on Disk, Slack Space, Files, Folders and Extension. Using these columns you can chase down your disk usage patterns. Because it all happens inside Windows Explorer, you're in a familiar environment with tools that function the way you expect. Additional tools include html/csv/text/xml reports, copy path to clipboard, command prompt at selected folder, wild card select objects.

How many sleeps 'til the big day? One day recently my four year daughter asked me how many sleeps until Santa comes. It took me a while to figure it out but I finally came up with an answer. A few minutes later she came back and asked me if I could write something to put on her computer that would tell her every day how many sleeps until Santa comes. Well, I delivered on time and on budget and, like most of my customers, she wanted changes, enhancements etc. So in addition to the little program that shows a cute little countdown on the desktop, there's also a colourful and easy to use setup program to change the big day, message text, fonts and colours and desktop position. It was written with Santa in mind but you can use it to countdown to any big day. NOTE: Works on Windows 2000/XP only.
