I can get by with these:
• Cmd+Shift+G ("Go to Folder")
• "View > Show Path Bar"
- dunham 12y agoIt would be nice if "/" and "~" opened "Go to Folder", like it does in file dialogs.
- charlesism 12y agoI'm not saying Apple made the right choice, but it is legal to include "/" and "~" in OS X filenames. This means that pressing "/" or "~" is already reserved for jumping to a file in Finder, just as pressing "a" would take you to the first file beginning with the letter "a"
- 0942v8653 12y agoCorrection: '~' is legal. '/' is actually ':'.
- charlesism 12y agoYou are correct in a sense, but not in the context of the Finder. In the Finder, you see '/' instead of ":" and therefore "/" is a character that needs to be reserved for selecting files. But in the context of using the command-line, or (some?/most?) programming libraries, you would be correct.
- eric_h 12y agoJust a note - the Go to Folder dialog supports tab completion. Pretty handy.
