Disk Order (http://likemac.ru) was great, now abandonware (last updated 2013)

Next best thing I could find was Path Finder (http://cocoatech.com)

I've also used http://www.mucommander.com/ for a while, I haven't kept track so I'm not sure about the current status.

yes mucommander, it could open websites too. it literally parsed html and showed you list of included resources in the panel. how cool is that? :-) which commander has that?

Path Finder is pretty good. I'm still not sure I exactly love it though I should maybe take the time to customize it one of these days. You end up back in Apple's Finder in program dialog boxes in any case.

Way back when, I sold a shareware file manager for DOS. I think the program was something like 32KB. :-) Times have changed.
