TrayNav

Release Dates

  • December 31, 2000 - Version 1.0

Description

Tray Nav was a Windows program that lived in the system tray on.  When clicked it would allow you to browse your hard drive using a recursive menu system.  The root menu was user configurable and could contain whichever folders the user wanted.  Each menu item representing a folder would recursively open another submenu displaying the folder's contents.

Comments

This is probably the first program I wrote where I got the feeling of my code becoming more than the sum of its parts. What I mean is when you write a piece of code (especially if it is recursive in nature), the behavior of the code seems to becomes more complex than it looks.  This is something I still notice when writing code, and I find it usually goes along with when something is well designed or implemented in a clever way.  This program was the predecessor to Folder Cruiser.
