Summary
Brett Terpstra introduces FileRouter, a new macOS application that offers users customized file opening preferences based on defined rules. Unlike the default method, FileRouter allows double-clicking files to open them in a preferred editor rather than the fixed default app. It provides features like defining specific editors, utilizing fallback rules, and the ability to assign hotkeys for quick access. Additionally, it supports URL schemes for improved functionality, especially for apps that require specific file paths. The app, which originated from an idea by Ralf Hülsmann, is currently available for a discount on the Mac App Store and direct purchases.
