Fileinfo
Computer languages Python  +
Full description Fileinfo helps you in identifying files wi Fileinfo helps you in identifying files with specific values for certain attributes in order to search and sort these files and present the results in an easily readable tabular fashion. Using fileinfo you can access this information for many files at once without opening these files individually with a dedicated application, which can be very time consuming. In order to determine such file attributes, fileinfo comes with some pre-built plug-ins, for file formats like PDF, MP3, TTF and PY (Python source code files). These plug-ins allow you to determine e.g. the number of pages or the creator of PDF documents, the artist and title of MP3 files, the number of glyphs in TTF font files, the number of classes or docstrings in Python files, etc. Of course, you can also access file information on an operating system level, like the size and modification date/time of files. And, you can also write your own plug-ins to extend fileinfo's capabilities. lug-ins to extend fileinfo's capabilities.
