One of the nicer ui elements on sgi's was the drop pocket. a specific identifiable spot where dropping a item would do something, it is a ui feature I wish had been picked up by other toolkits. The other really nice part about the sgi file explorer were the little buttons above the address bar to quickly go to a specific part of the hierarchy. Windows got this in 7(10 years later) and it works well but is via a hidden state. I am less familiar with mac's finder but I think it can do it, again via hidden state. https://software.majix.org/irix/screenshots/screen.5.big.jpg https://software.majix.org/irix/screenshots/screen.5.big.jpg here you can see a drop pocket(the blue folder icon to the left of the address bar) that takes paths. and the very nice irix address bar.
