Barely usable. Does not follow Windows "shortcuts" (understandable, as Microsoft developers did these in an idiotic manner, but nonetheless we have to live with them - not handling them is unacceptable). Can't drag and drop (have to "Cut" (which does not cut, but copies), paste, then delete the original.

Finally, an open source Finder replacement! I can't wait to see this project grow.
