Description
XWorkplace consists of a whole collection of WPS replacement classes, plus lots of other features, among which are:
- Freely configurable context menus.
- Extended sort functions: finally there are system-wide default sort options, plus more sort criteria (e.g. sort by extension).
- Display of folder content in context menus.
- Freely configurable folder status bars.
- Full path in folder window title bar.
- Freely configurable folder hotkeys (e.g. "F5" for "Refresh now", or "Ctrl+E" for "Sort by extension"): more than 30 items can be configured.
- Freely configurable object hotkeys: assign a hotkey to any WPS object and have it opened quickly this way.
- "Snap to grid" for all folders.
- Auto-scroll folder Tree views to make appearing items visible.
- Extended Shutdown / Restart WPS features: you can now abort shutdown, configure many things, skip hanging programs, and even automatically reboot to a certain partition, if you have BootManager installed.
- Lots of new WPS settings objects to ease system configuration, including CONFIG.SYS settings and device driver setup.
- New "WPS Class List" object for manipulating the WPS class list.
- Default WPS icons can be freely replaced.
- More system sounds for certain WPS events.
- "Treesize" utility to find out how much disk space is consumed by a folder and its subfolders.
- "Netscape DDE Interface" utility to have URLs being passed to the currently running Netscape instance instead of always starting a new one.
- A trash can with full WPS "delete" support.
- Lots of mouse and keyboard enhancements, such as sliding focus, sliding menus, screen corner objects, and global object hotkeys — all with full WPS integration.
- PageMage, a "virtual desktops" utility.
- The XCenter, a WarpCenter replacement.
Award Winner 2001!: XWorkplace was elected "Best individual software of the year" in the OS/2 World awards 2001.
XWorkplace is the successor of XFolder package.
