Sulguni Explorer for macOS

Sulguni Explorer (v2.4.8) is a native Swift/AppKit file manager and Finder replacement built for speed, visibility, and power-user workflows:

  • 5 View Modes & Dual-Pane Commander: Home Hub (drive gauges & pinned favorites), Tiles Grid, Details List (with recursive folder sizes), Miller Columns, Recursive Flat View, and Dual-Pane Commander (⌘\) with 1-Click Folder Diff & Directional Sync (Sync → / ← Sync).
  • Pro Studios & Staging: Batch Rename Studio (⇧⌘R) with character-level diff highlights and dynamic tokens ({name}, {parent}, {n:02}, {date}), Select by Pattern (⇧⌘S) with auto-detected folder extensions and size pills, and Quick Shelf / Drop Stack (⇧⌘K) with a native Drag All pill.
  • Developer, Verification & Network Tools: Multi-tab forkpty **zsh Terminal (⌘\``)** synced to the active folder with custom command snippets, **⌘K Command Palette** with 3 live calculators (chmod octal decoder, byte converter, and math evaluator), **Transfer Conflict Resolver** with 1-click SHA-256 content comparison, **Properties & Checksums (⌘I)** with an interactive 3×3 POSIX chmod matrix, **Paste Clipboard Image/Text as File**, **3-Pass Secure Shred**, and **7-Protocol Server Mounter** (SMB / SFTP / AFP / FTP / NFS / WebDAV / VNC`).

Use it when Finder starts getting in your way: too many scattered windows, no visibility during transfers, or slow navigation across deep project trees.

Start here (recommended order)

  1. Tabs & Workspaces - keep contexts open in vertical or horizontal tabs
  2. Column view - deep Miller column navigation with live preview
  3. Opening folders - current tab vs new tab vs dual-pane
  4. Common file operations - create, batch rename, and organize
  5. Copy/move with progress - queued transfers + conflict diffing
  6. Network volumes - connect to SMB, SFTP, FTP & WebDAV servers
