I found the tagging system inconvenient (all tags have to be pre-

was irksome. It does lack file-level encryption, yes, another
annoying part. In the end I did simply move back to using the Finder
- though EagleFiler does make this incredibly easy, seeing as how it
stores everything in folders anyway.
Tags in EagleFiler do not need to be pre-declared. You can type new
ones directly into the field at the bottom of the window or in the
Info inspector.
EagleFiler imports bookmarks and weblocs and converts them to Web
archives, which provide a content preview and text that you can search
for. The Open Source URL command (or Option-double click) lets you
open the live page in your browser, as with a bookmark.
EagleFiler encrypts per-library rather than per-file. This lets it
provide content searching of encrypted files, and it eliminates the
security issue of having unencrypted data left on the disk after
encrypting an existing item. Also, the metadata (title, notes, tags,
URL, etc.) are encrypted in addition to the content.
So there are reasons for the way EagleFiler works, and they're often
about tradeoffs. Yojimbo and other apps make different decisions, for
different reasons.
