Meh. OS 9 and earlier had "Put Away" which did this and more. It also ejected drives, dismounted network volumes, and allowed the user the temporarily store files pulled out of folders on the desktop. You know, in line with the original metaphor of user at a desk the user manipulated documents and folders on.
(Yes, I'm still grumpy from how Apple screwed up the "spatial" nature of the original Finder.)
- jwilliams 18y agoFinder has to be the weakest part of the OS X experience at the moment.
- tmilewski 18y agoVery much agreed.
- unalone 18y agoFinder's being ported to Cocoa might be a sign that Apple's looking to fix things? I hope so. I haven't noticed recently because now I use Quicksilver to browse everything, and it's incredibly more efficient. I wish Apple would just make Quicksilver a built-in feature of their OS.
