In this same week I have downloaded numerous betas of XYplorer and watched as several different features were improved (a couple quite significantly) and as the developer interacted with users about how those features should be implemented and how they would work best. The developer has demonstrated sensitivity to not shoving "enhancements" onto users but provide them as an option. As a holder of a lifetime license, I pay nothing to get use out of the latest and greatest that XY has to offer. I have also reflected on how clever XY is. For example, in CorelDraw, when you right-click on a toolbar button, you get a huge context menu of toolbars to turn on or off and a customize submenu with a mindboggling array of button & toolbar customization options. Compare this to XY, where right-clicking a TB button opens a practical list of truly context aware choices that relate to the purpose of that button. And, I'm pretty sure something that crashed the program would be fixed by the next day.
XY isn't perfect, but what it does it does well, and what it doesn't do it generally doesn't for a defensible reason. The quality of this software and the responsiveness of its' developer are remarkable.
