![]() ![]() “Is it worth the money?” I have found it to be well worth what I paid for it I think it was $60 then.(See Douglas Barone’s classic 2009 essay “File System Infobase Manager” for more arguments in favor of the “good old file system”.) Like and said, “I also use it as a tool, not as a full on repository”, which means I don’t store files in DEVONthink’s repository nor in a cloud service, but instead store files in the Mac file system and index them in DEVONthink. I am also an occasional DEVONthink (version 2) user, as I previously described here. This was such a great tool and allowed for a great workflow throughout the departments that a few of our attorneys switched from windows to mac just to have access to DT themselves. Also when working on a new product line, being able to oversee the existing patents can be a great way to create new technologies. For any new ideas i asked engineers to describe these in their own words and then i let DT classify it so that i had a chance to review if the proposal was likely already covered by existing patents, or how the idea could be restructured and/or which patents came close and could possibly harvested for some new ideas. With ongoing engineering in a competitive space, staying on top of the patent landscape is rather important and that DT database was instrumental answering engineering questions about existing art but also what we might improve on. As the database grew, new patents were quickly classified into its relevant group by DT’s classification function. With a small script i could extract various trends such as which technologies competitors appeared to focus on. Tagging each patent with year and company name. Using DT, i built a database with our own as well as competitors patents grouping and subngrouping along relevant technologies. At the time was working for a big industrial in engineering management role which required me to support our patent strategies (just support, i am not a patent attorney). Tembo will no longer be able to find Mail message files.I have used DT since an early v2 release, not sure when that was but feels like 10 years ago. On macOS 10.15 Catalina, Apple Mail messages are not available through the Spotlight index. This includes files in the Library folders but excludes most system files, hidden files, etc. Tembo can find any file indexed by Spotlight. Drag a file out of Tembo into Finder or into another application.Control-click or right-click to access the context menu.Hit the space bar to get a QuickLook preview of the file.Use the share button to share selected files with others.Use the action button to perform tasks: rename, trash, tag, etc.Hold the option key while double-clicking to send Tembo to the background.Menu bar button and global keyboard shortcuts.Collapsible groups: hide seldomly visited groups.View options: font size, date format, a grid of icons or previews.File Info window: an easy-to-read overview of important file properties.Sharing: send files by Mail, Messages, Facebook, etc.Actions: rename, tag, or trash files from search results.Command-click several filter values to see files of different types. Select that option to reduce the long list of results to just Word files. The File Type filter, for example, shows a Microsoft Word option only if the search returned Word files. Filters appropriate to the current group help you quickly find what you are looking for.įilters show options that are actually available. You will find up to 10’000 search results. The real power of Tembo is revealed when you drill down into a group. Often enough, you will find the sought for file right here. For each group, Tembo first shows the top 10 matches. Tembo then groups search results by file type category. Tembo finds documents, folders, images, videos, and more. ![]() It will get to your files as quickly as possible. Tembo is a super-efficient, organized file search tool.
