>Save/Open dialogs in OS X are limited. One example: I go to save a file and create a folder. Ooops, I want to delete that folder but I can't do it from the dialog, I have to go and open a Finder instance. Windows generally lets you do anything in an Open/Save dialog that you can do from a Windows Explorer instance. There's a plugin for OS X that attempts to fix some of these issues called "Default Folder X".
This was also a great annoyance for me on Linux (or more specifically, with the GTK file save/open dialog).

- ANTSANTS 12y agoI wasn't talking about OSX though.
- moogleii 12y agoSure, and I wasn't attempting to correct you. Merely pointing out the original premise is not true.
- WorldWideWayne 12y agoThanks for taking the time to check my assertions and for replying. I think that one feature changed in Mavericks. I'm honestly not ecstatic about any of the desktop OS choices today, but I have hope that will change one day!
