You can also use the Text Editor that is part of File Manager Pro to
perform more-than-basic editing, search and replace, and other func-
tions. You can also skip several steps by saving files or folders to your
Favorites list, which allows you to jump directly to them. And the
Favorites are managed dynamically: the ones you use most often (or
those used most recently) are moved to the top of the list.
The app permits you to sort files by name, size, type, or date. And you
can also examine the properties of any file to learn more details. From
that screen you can make a file read-only (meaning that it can’t be
modified and saved under the same name) or hidden so that it does not
appear unless you specifically ask that this type of file be displayed.
Best features
If you know how to use a personal computer, you know how to use
this product, and you also know how valuable it can be in managing
the files stored in your BlackBerry.
Worst features
Not the fault of File Manager Pro: you cannot delete some of the built-
in apps of the BlackBerry and some of its sample files. Although they
appear as if they are standalone files they are actually components of
the operating system.
How to get it
Available from BlackBerry App World and from third-party sites such
as Crackberry. Terra Mobility. www.terramobility.com. Price: $4.99.
