This week we’re continuing our series into the future of ForkLift. Last time we looked at the docked activity viewer/progress bar and got some good feedback which helped us finalize the new feature’s specs. Now in part 2, we’re following up on last week’s tease:
Stacks
Stack are one of the major additions we have planned for ForkLift 2.0.
Stacks are of course virtual temporary folders where you can just stack up a selection of files and folders from different parts of your filesystem, and then carry out an operation on all of them at once. Handy for keeping project files in one place or for preparing large transfer jobs.

With these sleepless hot summer nights on us again, ForkLift 2.0 has recently started to take shape. By no measure does this mean that we’re anywhere near a functional build, but we now have some framework components and the main elements of the UI ready. A skeleton basically.
As the coming months are going to be spent with progressively dressing this skeleton with ForkLift’s feature set, we though it would be a perfect occasion to discuss the features over with you. So, you’re looking at a series of future posts, where we will regularly give you a peek at the module we’re currently working on, and see if there’s a way to improve something. These posts are going to be your best chance to make your ideas heard, so no need to show restraint, just keep to the function at hand.
I must say, there’s absolutely no guarantee that any of your suggestions will actually get into the release, but we will try to keep an open mind. (and that’s the best you can expect)

As I wrote last week, we’ve been very much surprised at the response that our impromptu promo received. From what it looked like, there was a huge crowd of people standing right outside our doors, waiting for an opportunity to get their hands on a cheap copy.
It really felt like one those shopping mobs you see on youtube, without the nasty pushing around and negative undertones, of course.
