I came across a picture I took of my Amiga 1000 monitor in 1995. It is a file manager utility program; I don’t remember the name. I suspect I took the picture because I thought it was a very good program. Looking at it now, I only vaguely recall what everything is; you can work beyond the icon with the Amiga. I think I mostly used it to copy/move/delete files. You could program buttons to do file related functions.
The buttons were basically icons for CLI scripts. I see the EdGenie button which was a script I made to dial up the Genie network to access a large Amiga bulletin board (I subscribed for a number of hours of access per month). You could program a button to run an executable file that didn’t have an icon.

That looks very much like DirectoryOpus.
I agree, it's also my favourite. I'm using DOpus 4 (4.18.44) under OS 4.1.
Best regards,
Niels

Yep that’s Directory Opus or commonly known as Dopus. Can be downloaded off Aminet for free. I use it on all my Amiga OS 3 builds. Comes as standard on Amiga OS 4.1FE.

Although the version included with the OS is not the latest one (which I believe is the one I mentioned above, 4.18.44), but that can be found on Aminet as well.
