Path Finder: More than a Finder replacement
Merlin Mann | Dec 28 2006
Given the comments and emails I receive whenever I use Path Finder in a demo, it's clear to me that people are hungry for ways to improve and customize their stock Finder. PF's appearance in my latest MacBreak has been no exception. So, for folks that haven't heard my pimping before or who haven't been following the recent additions to the inarguably crufty uber-app, here's a tricked-out Path Finder window, showing the new tab functionality, plus all the optional drawers, tchotchkes, and finials that can be displayed.
For more on why I dig Path Finder, read 7 things I like about Path Finder for OS X. And be sure to check back soon on MacBreak (HD 1080 Podcast feed); Leo and I have a segment on Path Finder that should be airing soon. Addition 2006-12-28 10:31:43 Neil makes a great point in comments. I have this terrible habit of only ever showing Path Finder with all of its features on, and all its optional frippery enabled. In fact, PF needn't look like a functional salad bar at all, and the enclosed is closer to how I configure it for my own everyday usage.
Thanks, Neil. 20 Comments

 the one thing I wish...Submitted by Eloy Ramirez (not verified) on December 28, 2006 - 7:47am.
the one thing I wish Finder would do is give me the folder path (not just folder name) at the top of the window. I am a Photographer and when I am copying/moving images from my media to my MBP, I always have to scroll or click back to find out which window is which folder. This task was easy to do in Windows. I use Path Finder for this reason alone. » POSTED IN:
