Bilocation: a tool for managing files using tags instead of folders

This file should go into location A. But wait, it also belongs to location B. If you face this issue regularly while managing your files, bilocation is for you.

Bilocation puts beside the notion of organizing files in a tree structure and uses tags instead.
