Easy access archiving for Macs
Screenshots
Springy is a powerful and easily accessible archiving and compression utility for Macs. It offers an alternative to StuffIt and allows users to handle a wide range of file formats. With Springy, archiving becomes as simple as drag and drop or through the Finder contextual menu. One notable feature is the ability to preview and browse archives before extracting them, which is particularly useful for dealing with large archives.
In addition to extraction, Springy also allows users to create disk images. The software supports most major formats, including ZIP, TAR, RAR, 7Z, PAX, CPIO, CPGZ, GZIP, BZIP2, UNIX Compress, SIT, JAR, DMG, and ISO disk images.
Although Springy is a user-friendly archiving tool, the initial installation process can be a bit confusing. The software advises users to drag the Springy application to a Contextual Menu Items folder, but some users have reported that this action opens their downloads folder instead.
Overall, Springy is a reliable and accessible archiving utility that provides a refreshing alternative to StuffIt for Mac users.
