I am evaluating Eaglefiler for purchase and confused about importing.

I understand importing fles and such from webpages, but shouldn't everything in the documents folder of Mac Lion simply automatically be included in Eaglefiler when I drop it in there? Do I have to put it in the Documents folder and then import it into eagle filer?

This is not clear to me from looking thru the threads and the manual.

I have massive numbers of historical files and I really want something to organize them with, hence my interest in Eaglefiler.

Am I missing the boat on the purpose of Eaglefiler? Is it really just a big clipboard?

Thank you,
Lewis
