Client Folder Maker is a simple, easy to use general purpose folder creation and management tool for the busy desktop publisher, prepress operator or web designer. It allows you to set up a hierarchy of folders once, then re-Create that hierarchy anywhere in the filesystem with just a few clicks from the Finder.
Implemented as a Preference Pane, Client Folder Maker can be invoked by a Handy Menu Item, Keyboard shortcut, or Contextual Menu (Leopard Only). It was developed specifically to make you more productive by creating the same set of folders consistently from project to project.
Focus on Ease of Use
When CFM is invoked, simply enter the Client Name, its Job Number, and hit the Build button. Client Folder Maker will faithfully create the folder hierarchy based on the clients name, the number associated to that job, with all the support folders inside.
Tag Variables
The hidden gem in CFM is its limitless customization of tag variables, so the possibilities for personal customization are endless. Despite its namesake, Client Folder Maker's default presets aren't limited to simply a "client name" and a "job number". As long as the chosen words or phrases are surrounded in braces, you can create and leverage any Tags you wish.
Auto Import Content
You can also auto-import content from existing source files. This feature makes it easy to copy the Contents from any text file into a newly created file at the time a hierarchy is created.
File and Folder Permissions
CFM users can set permissions on files and folders too. This is a boon for web designers who often build very structured folder directories for new clients which have repeatable content and file/folder permissions.
