Description / Abstract

Submitted to the Department of Mathematics and Computer Science in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Bachelor of Arts

foxKeeper File Management System is a program developed for the use of Gompf Brackets Inc. It creates a directory of the files and subfolders within a user provided base folder and provides the user access to them through a Graphical User Interface. Through this interface, the user may select files to open f rom a list of customizable categories. PDFs and text files may be opened within foxKeeper if the user chooses; otherwise, they are opened in their default applications along with all other types of files. foxKeeper was written in Java using Intellij IDEA. PDF files are displayed using an external open source Java library called PDF Render. The goal of this project is to make it easier for employees of Gompf Brackets to navigate through and documents, and also to track changes made to those documents. Planned improvements include adding the ability to sort file lists, to export a log of file changes to Excel spreadsheets, and the elimination of rendering errors when displaying PDFs within the program.
