This is an extensive and very mighty utility with a great number of additional features. The user interface compares more to XTree's windows versions, which is, let's say, a matter of taste... It runs stable, only seems to be a bit fuzzy in its reaction to user inputs, has many of XTree's hotkeys although they are not shown on the screen. |

Win95
or NT |
Quite interesting attempt in introducing an appearance which combines XTree DOS layout with a Windows User Interface; regrettably hasn't gone further than an alpha release with a number of bugs, running a bit unstable. Just for testing, not for everydays use. |

Unix | Looks quite close to original DOS XTree, but unfortunately I couldn't test this for having no Linux system; maybe somebody wants to mail me his experiences? --> mathias.winkler@munich.netsurf.de |

The closest! If any program should have
the merit to be named "XTree Gold 5.0", then this one ! Although a true
32bit application it runs completely in text mode and has exactly the same
layout and user interface as XTreeGold 3.0 DOS. All those, who loved good
old XTree and use Win95/NT cannot live without that gem ! Final releases
run quite stable and the beta versions are steadily developed. You will
find several times a month new betas on the ZTree homepages. Don't miss
it!
