General interface2006-01-12
Shows off the UI with tabs and pretty toolbars. Details view is the only supported view (I never use anything but that in Explorer, and if I want thumbnails I use Picasa). The context menu shows the proper shell integration and loading of the users open-with list.

Filters2006-01-12
The filters are fully composable and can have some complex statements in them. Here I am filtering on all files larger than 3MB and of type dll (typing 'dynamic link library' would have had the same effect).

Not much to say here yet. I'm only working on this in my limited free time; it can currently display and work with all shell folders, uses the registry to build proper program listings and open with lists, and can execute things. There are some nice UI features like dynamic filtering on all columns and a Visual Studio 2005-style ctrl-tab list, but it's not that useful until some more file manipulation stuff gets in.
