Q: Why is your program called 'SequoiaView'?
A: We are interested in the visualisation of large tree structures and since a sequoia is a prime example...
Q: Is the source for SequoiaView public, or will it be? If not, is there a component I can use?
A: No, the sources for SequoiaView are not publicly available and we currently do not have a component version.
Q: Will there be a Linux or Unix version of SequoiaView?
A: No, not in the near future. A workaround : SequoiaView can work in SuSE 8.1 using the WINE interface. There is also a SequoiaView like product for linux KDirStat
Q: Great program, but why can't I delete files?
A: Most people are not accustomed to viewing their filesystem in this way and we wouldn't want to be responsible for people accidentally deleting their files. Using the popup context menu under the right mouse button however, you can immediately access Windows explorer and delete any file you wish.
Q: Is SequoiaView in any other language ?
A : No, there is only an English version of SequoiaView. However, Michael Brestrich has kindly translated the release notes into German.
Q: SequoiaView crashes when it tries to read my disk. I get a blue screen and am returned to the Windows desktop.
A: This was a bug that occured on some systems that used older (1.1b and prior) versions of SequoiaView. Downloading the lastest version should fix this.
Q : Who developed SequoiaView?
A: SequoiaView was developed by the following persons:
