Anyway, in TotalFinder, option-cmd double click on any of the separator bars in column view, autofits all.
I may be missing something here but you can already do this by option clicking in the finder in Leopard (I think is when that was introduced) and above.
If you right click on the double bars I think in Lion they gave you a menu that shows three choices "Right Size This Column" "Right Size All Columns Individually" and "Right Size All Columns Equally" If you option drag on the double bars it will size them all equally.
Here is some code from that might help but doesn't unfortunately auto resize columns
tell application "Finder"
activate
tell list view options of the front Finder window
set properties to {calculates folder sizes:false, shows icon preview:false, icon size:large icon, text size:12, uses relative dates:true, sort column:name column}
tell columnname column
set properties to {index:1, sort direction:normal, width:400}
end tell
tell columnsize column
set properties to {index:2, sort direction:normal, width:100, visible:true}
end tell
tell columnmodification date column
set properties to {index:3, sort direction:normal, width:80, visible:true}
end tell
tell columncreation date column
set properties to {index:4, sort direction:normal, width:90, visible:true}
end tell
tell columnkind column
set properties to {index:5, sort direction:normal, width:200, visible:false}
end tell
tell columnlabel column
set properties to {index:6, sort direction:normal, width:55, visible:false}
end tell
tell columnversion column
set properties to {index:7, sort direction:normal, width:72, visible:false}
end tell
tell columncomment column
set properties to {index:8, sort direction:normal, width:240, visible:false}
end tell
set sort column to size column
end tell
tell the front Finder window
set current view to list view
set zoomed to false
end tell
end tell
The visible true or false doesn't work on Snow Leopard and up (maybe not even on Leopard).
