Easily create your own custom tabs. Tabs may contain links to files (the default) or can list actual files if you prefer.
1-click access to multiple tab panels. If all of your custom tabs do not fit on the main window, simply click anywhere in the background to cycle to the next panel of tabs.
Full drag & drop support for items. They work just like the Tracker. You can even drag a file and drop it on an application in any tab. The application will be opened and passed the file you dropped on it. Try to do this in Tracker.
Initial auto-mount support. Items or Tabs with links to Local Drives will be automatically mounted for you, if needed.
Multi-column tab window layout for better access to long lists of items.
Access default and custom Tracker addons from any tab item. (click the secondary mouse button for the menu)
Separate popup tips on items and popup help for tabs. (Quickly turn each on/off from the Master Menu, red ball)
Drop files on Tab headings to add them to the list.
Easy Uninstall from the master menu.
No more need to uninstall old versions. AutoPilot takes care of this for you. However, it's still your choice to delete the old install folder.
There is a short delay before the main window activates. This helps keep AutoPilot from activating when you bump it by accident. The delay will be customizable in a future version
During the install, you will be asked if you would like AutoPilot to start at boot time. (This way AutoPilot will always be there when you need it)
A Recent Applications addon. The addon will track applications that have been previously started and add them to a Custom Tab that you create (select taRecentApps.so for the custom addon). If you remove an application from the tab, the application will not be added again. (see the tab item menu for the Remove option)
Manage multiple POP3 email accounts using the default main daemon and any email reader that supports the default IN box.
