Preview Handler for 100+ File Types

Hey Everyone...

Want to preview different types of files in XYplorer?

I use SmartFTP to do just that.

It's not free, you would need to buy it. But when you do so you'll have access to a preview handler for over 100 files.

See link and images below for more details.

About 80USD are a little bit to high for such a tool.
Most editors even free ones have syntax highlighting for all source common languages.
Thats not a windows preview but enough for me.

A free alternative: delphi preview handler

+ 60+ supported source code file extensions
+ dark mode with themes!
+ search inside preview

- starts slow
- last update ~ 5 years ago

I think it is available as 32-bit software, to match XYplorer's 32-bitness
