A configureable list viewer.

Simplest Example

If you have a ton .efu files (created by everything)

You can add a json configuration

{
    "Title": "List-Viewer",
    "Columns": [
        {
            "ColumnName": "EFU File",
            "ColumnField": "FileName",
            "IsContextVariable": true
        },
        {
            "ColumnName": "Name",
            "ColumnField": "Filename"
        }
    ],
    "Sources": [
        {
            "Provider": "dir",
            "DirPath": "C:\\YourDir",
            "SubDirDepth": 999,
            "Templates": {
                ".efu": {
                    "Provider": "csv"
                }
            }
        }
    ]
}
