What is Cathy?

A compact and efficient media cataloging utility enables users to create searchable databases of files stored on various storage media, including removable discs, hard drives, and network drives. This self-contained application provides a fast and straightforward way to manage and access content without the need for the original media. The search functionality allows users to locate files based on name, date, and size, with additional filtering options to identify duplicates or unique items. Further capabilities include the ability to directly open or delete located files, support for drag-and-drop actions, and the option to print directory trees, MP3 album/song lists, and disk space usage reports. This single-file executable requires no installation, making it a versatile tool that can even be utilized on Linux systems through the Wine compatibility layer
