10 Epic (Free!) Apps That Should Be Built Into macOS – Ep.1

Buying a Mac gets you a nice machine. It also gets you a software community that has spent decades quietly building tools for everything, and giving a lot of them away. This round-up covers 10 free utilities I actually use: dual-pane file managers that make Finder look like a museum exhibit, automated file sorting, a terminal that doesn't look like a scene from War Games, a Caps Lock key finally given a proper job, and a note app that is just a rectangle you type in.
