Rixstep's Xfile has a lot of options regarding file information. Possible for NC?
Note: the following is moot, because now that the app launches again without crashing, I see that the creation date is already in the attributes window.
Before Nimble Commander got into a constant crashing fit on my system, I saw that dates for last access, change, modification are already implemented. This is standard Unix, right? But what about the creation date? With macOS you also have a fourth date, which you can read e.g. with the GetFileInfo -d /path/to/file command. But this is part of the Command Line Tools (and Xcode). And I don't know if there's a quick & easy way to read the creation date without them. There's mdls -raw -name kMDItemFSCreationDate /path/to/file, but both would be extra commands, and it would slow down browsing & directory listing. (So maybe it's just something for the file information window instead of the main window?
