I understand that the conversation has since reverted to nested folders, but… The blogger made a mistake; It appears Eagle Filer uses a combination of flat file structure AND Core Data (SQLite db) for its database, instead of Yojimbo's exclusive use of Core Data. Flat file system? What ve

Notwithstanding PW's horse-flogging point, may I make a more general observation about multiple ways of working? There is more than one use for a nested folder system - a desire for nested folders doesn't necessarily mean you aren't using tags effectively or searching for data effectively.

Nested folders are more visual, for me at least. I find it easier to maintain a mental overview of what I have collected with nested folders - which is important for me. And, of course, what's nice about including Nested Folders is that you don't have to use them if you don't want to! On

Agree totally, though I don't want to use two app's to store stuff and so am sticking to Yojimbo, with regular backups, a few Applescripts to export etc. and a deep sigh of longing every time I see nested folders elsewhere in a similar app! On Apr 4, 2007, at 4:04 AM, Alan Schmitt wrote:

Ohhh.. the filesystems label function is a poorly designed leftover from the past. I'm looking forward to a future filesystem that has a built-in database to store file meta-data. Read this for an idea of what may come in the near future

From my experience with another application that inexplicably used XML to store its database instead of SQLite, promising future functionality is a recipe for great user frustration and dissatisfaction. Especially if some functionality of the future OS release is tied in with the release of the a
