![]() However, I do wonder if other cloud stores, such as Google Cloud Store and Alibaba Cloud Object Storage Service, will also be supported in the near future as they start becoming more popular. It is able to connect not just to regular protocols like SFTP, FTP/S, WebDAV and Samba but also cloud storages like Amazon S3 and Rackspace CloudFiles. This feature really works well on Forklift 3. So with an embedded terminal screen, I could easily run a process restart without needing to switch windows to Terminal or iTerm. This is useful for me if since a lot of my text file editing are quick edits of configuration file or source codes. ![]() However, as I mentioned, it does have a built in terminal module. Therefore I didn’t use it much since it’s as good as opening and editing it on Atom editor. However, it works as a seperate tool that runs on its own window versus directly off the preview pane. Path Finder also has a text editor that allows you to edit your text files. This is something that Path Finder 7 had. js javascript codes and package.json files that’s residing on my Raspberry Pi using this feature on Forklift 3 and it works great! The only thing that would make this completely perfect is if Forklift 3 also has an embedded terminal module so can completely work within Forklift 3. It’s 2017 already! This feature is especially useful when you copy files over to an external HDD drive to reduce disk trashing. I just really cannot fathom why none of the operating systems out there have this feature built-in. This is one of the main reasons I use an alternative to Finder. However, I’ve strived to be unbiased in writing this post. NOTE: I was provided with a review copy of Forklift 3 to ensure no limitations are in place when I’m researching the app. For that, you can see it here on their web manual. When Finder is not enough, Cocoatechs Path Finder will fill all the gaps for you. So it’s not a full list of capabilities you can find in Forklift 3. What’s listed here are features that I find to be useful in Forklift 3. So if you are a current Path Finder 7 user like me, this should give you an idea why Forklift may also be worth your considerations. It is also a comparison with what I’ve personally found useful in Path Finder 7. Its nice to see virtual desktops - not as slick as in an average Linux distro yet though. This post is basically a review of Forklift 3 based on my real life use over a few weeks. Cocoatechs Pathfinder remains better though.
