So I use a mac.
And if you use a mac, you might know about TextExpander or Path Finder or Task Paper
Well… Productive Macs has all 3 of these apps, PLUS a bunch more for only $29 in their Productive Macs Bundle.
My favorite out of the whole lot is easily TextExpander. I use that thing all the time.
Here’s an example… I have domain that is rather long but that I type all the time. With Text Expander, I type a few characters like ,,url and that expands to http://www.christopherobrien.net (For those of you who are trying to do the math, that is typing 5 characters instead of 34!)
And that is just the beginning of what it can do. It gets even crazier when you start applying more advanced stuff like scripting or fill-in forms. I personally have just begun using the fill-in forms, but Brett Terpstra has got this stuff down to a science and has really helped me jump into the world of scripts.
Path Finder is a full-fledged replacement for Finder. It is basically what Apple should have made when they made Finder. And quite honestly, I think the only reason Apple hasn’t snatched this app up and made it their own is because they are trying to hide the file system. With things like iCloud, I think they don’t want future users to even know or care where their files are saved.
But anyway, Path Finder has a whole ton of power when it comes to file management. My favorite feature is the drop stack, where you can grab files and drop them on a little icon. Then once you have all the files you want, you can move them all at once to what ever location you desire. So easy.
You can buy the Productive Macs bundle Here.
Full Disclosure : Buying it from the above link (or Here ) will let them know that I sent you and give me a small kickback.
