NFO previews & thumbnails
Only for Mac
$0.99
Mac
Classic NFO artwork in Finder: Quick Look previews, thumbnails, and seven color schemes. Includes a sample file and a built-in assistant to help with setup.
Preview NFO files right in Finder. Select a .nfo file and press Space to see classic scene and BBS artwork in Quick Look, or browse your collection with Finder thumbnails.
NFOscope preserves the CP437 box-drawing and block characters used in classic DOS artwork and automatically recognizes modern UTF-8 files.
MAKE IT YOUR OWN
Choose from seven color-scheme options for Quick Look: Automatic, Modern Light, Vintage Light, Modern Dark, Amber Monitor, Classic Terminal, and IBM CGA. Automatic follows your Mac’s appearance. Finder thumbnails use a consistent light palette for easy browsing.
QUICK LOOK HELP, BUILT IN
The assistant in Preferences checks your installation, helps you find older QuickNFO copies, and lets you test a thumbnail with your own NFO file. Clear guidance and optional manual repair steps help you troubleshoot missing previews or thumbnails.
