    File manager needed.

    hey guys, I'm looking for a file and folder manager that will help me compare and find duplicates from one folder with another, remove non-matching files from a folder and replace a file if newer or not there.

    To illustrate:

    Folder A and Folder B

    Compare Folder B with Folder A.

    If a file exists in folder A that IS NOT in folder B, delete it.

    If a file exists that is in folder B and NOT in folder A, add it.

    If a file in folder B is newer than what's in A, replace it.

    Any app that will help with this? Mac preferably.

        I've heard good things about Path Finder
        http://www.cocoatech.com/pathfinder/

        Don't know if it will do all that you're asking for though.

            I thought the same thing.
            I was banned from P&R because I refer to it as an echo chamber.

            Echo Chamber - "an environment in which a person encounters only beliefs or opinions that coincide with their own, so that their existing views are reinforced and alternative ideas are not considered."

            This is considered trolling and a personal attack according to Curio. FYI in case you decide to step in there. I wonder if the definition of irony is known...

              This might be a windows management option. Basically you want two sync to folders.

                I mean, you can accomplish the last 2 tasks with a standard XCOPY, RoboCopy, or RichCopy (if you want a GUI).
