What is Troi File Plug-in?

Troi File Plug-in is a very powerful tool for getting access to
information outside the FileMaker Pro database. Any files or folders
stored on the computer can be accessed through the functions of the
plug-in. All from within FileMaker Pro you can:
- get data from files that are on the disk of the computer into FileMaker Pro
- create files anywhere on the hard disk and put data from FileMaker
fields into them
- manipulate files and folders on the disk: this includes creating,
deleting, copying, moving and modifying files and folders
- get the size on disk, creation and modification dates and much more
- launch and reveal files directly from FileMaker Pro
- manage your images and movies, and read and write IPTC and Exif
metadata to JPEG images


What is new in version 5.5?

Troi File Plug-in 5.5 is an upgrade which adds support for Mac OS X
Lion. It adds these new features:
- Tested and made compatible with Mac OS X Lion 10.7 (GM).
- Improved the TrFile_ListFolder function: you can now recursively
get the list of files and folders and all the subfolders of the
folder you are listing.
- (Mac OS X) You can now list the contents of a package folder (like
for example a Mac OS X app).
- You can now create square thumbnails with the improved
TrFile_CreateThumbnail function.
- Improved the TrFile_MetaData function: added support for getting
EXIF data from many types of RAW files.

Troi File Plug-in 5.5 also incorporates these improvements:
- (Windows) Improved TrFile_ListFolder and TrFile_Search function, it
now better returns files with higher Unicode characters in the name.
- (Mac OS X) Improved the TrFile_ListFolder and TrFile_Search
function: changed the default to returning long file names (up to 255
characters). You no longer need to add the switch "-LongNames" to do
this.
- Updated the example files and documentation for the new functionality.
- Fixed a few small issues and made several smaller improvements.
