Version 1.9.16 of EagleFiler is now available.

EagleFiler makes organizing and managing your information easy. It lets you archive and search mail, Web pages, PDF files, word processing documents, images, and more. Use it to collect information from a variety of sources. Browse different types of files using a familiar three-pane interface. Organize them into folders and annotate them with tags and notes, or leave everything in one folder and pin-point the information you need using the live search. Since EagleFiler stores its library in Finder format, you can use it in concert with the other tools in your Mac ecosystem.

EagleFiler is a digital filing cabinet, an information organizer, and a snippet manager. You can use it to write a journal, track the files for a project or job, save your favorite Web pages locally, store financial statements, run a paperless office, plan a trip, archive your e-mail correspondence, search mailing list archives, or research a purchase. Use EagleFiler as a bookmark manager, a recipe database, and an issue tracker. Store scientific papers, assemble a scrapbook, or gather notes for a legal case or college course. It’s the most flexible tool on your Mac.
