M.V.P. ?

Which is YOUR "most valued program"?
Is there one particular app that you can't live without in your daily skinning life?
Mine is "ACDSee", my image viewer, I can't imagine life without it!

Well, for my regular workday, I'd have to say HomeSite, but as far as skinning goes it has to be Photoshop, without it I'd surely lose my mind.

For me it is not ones specific program but a group of three. Dreamweaver, Notepad (yes I like to hand write script), and Photoshop, on a daily basis. As for the mental relief Ray Dream Studio and Bryce.

Man, that's a toughie... I can't restrict it to one... Lets think. What program do I use the most, that I use both at work and at home? Well, I guess I have to say Internet Explorer... Or does that count?

And just like Alexandrie: Windows Commander, just can't live without it!! Windows Explorer sucks!

I must admit Trans, I thought the same as you. Believe it or not, I never use Explorer, so I don't think I will have any use for Commander. Though I can see why people WOULD use it.
BoXXi opens Explorer and wonders what it does. Hmmmmmmmmmm.......

2X Explorer is pretty decent as well. It is also free.

Well Transi....
Does Exploder come with a buildin mp3 player???
Does Exploder come with a buildin ftp-program???
Can Exploder unpack most compressed files???
Can Exploder compress ANY files??? (.Zip/.RAR/etc.. etc...)
In Exploder, can you browse/add files/delete files/view files inside a compressed file without uncompressing it???
Can Exploder view the hex-code of any file???

I think THAT should be season enough to use it!!

I'm using XP and:

Does Exploder come with a buildin mp3 player???
Yes.
Does Exploder come with a buildin ftp-program???
Yes.
Can Exploder unpack most compressed files???
Zip files
Can Exploder compress ANY files??? (.Zip/.RAR/etc.. etc...)
No, just zip files, but since I'm not into warez, zip is all I come across.
In Exploder, can you browse/add files/delete files/view files inside a compressed file without uncompressing it???
Yes.
Can Exploder view the hex-code of any file???
Err... dunno. Not even sure what hex-code is...
I think THAT should be reason enough to use it!!
Not really.

But I'll give you that the built-in FTP client sucks. I use a program called Internet Neighbourhood to integrate FTP into the shell.
