Sig Software is pleased to announce that DragThing by TLA Systems is now the official upgrade path for Drop Drawers, and it is recommended that all users upgrade. DragThing is a very popular Dock program for Mac OS X which provides all the functionality of Drop Drawers, along with many extra features. DragThing runs natively on both Intel and PowerPC.
Sig Software and TLA Systems have worked together to make this transition as smooth as possible. DragThing automatically imports Drop Drawers preference files, including the contents, Keyboard Shortcuts, and appearance of drawers. Many new features have also been added to DragThing specifically to make Drop Drawers users feel more at home.
