1   Introduction

EagleFiler is an easy-to-use information manager. It lets you organize and search mail, Web pages, PDF files, notes, and more. Use it to collect stuff from a variety of sources. Browse everything using a standard three-pane interface. Organize using folders and annotate using tags and notes, or just leave everything in one folder and pin-point what you need instantly using the live search. Since EagleFiler stores its library in Finder format, it works smoothly with your other favorite Mac applications.

EagleFiler in a nutshell:

1. With a single keypress, import a Web page, mail messages, a scrap of text, or any file on your Mac.
2. EagleFiler stores them in an open format: regular files and folders that are fully accessible to your other applications.
3. Optionally: encrypt the files, add tags, notes, color-coded labels, and other metadata.
4. Browse by folder or by tag, or use the live search to find the information you need (faster than Spotlight).
5. View, edit, or create documents directly in EagleFiler’s streamlined interface, or double-click to edit using a more specialized application.

What can you do with EagleFiler? 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.
