[QUOTE="IvanLasston, post: 1068552, member: 145676"] For easy commandline access I use shellhere with finder. [url=http://etresoft.org/shellhere.html]Etresoft Programming Site: ShellHere[/url] You drop it in the finder toolbar and if you have a folder selected it opens a shell in that folder, otherwise it opens it in the current directory. For navigation I use the previously mentioned View-> show path bar You can also CMD-Click the folder name at the top and it will show you a folder tree from the top to where you are. For SSH/FTP I use either commandline or Fugu [url=http://rsug.itd.umich.edu/software/fugu/]Research Systems Unix Group: Fugu[/url] For FOSS software I use macports or fink - lately I've been using mainly macports [url=http://www.macports.org/]The MacPorts Project -- Home[/url] [url=http://www.finkproject.org/]Fink - Home[/url] If you have a multi-touch trackpad - before you write it off - try better touch tool [url=http://blog.boastr.net/]Great Tools For Your Mac By Andreas Hegenberg BetterTouchTool & SecondBar[/url] Gets you left, right, middleclick, also has that snap feature and hotkeys to move/resize with the mouse like you can in linux. (without having to grab a titlebar or stretch corner. I bought pathfinder because some basic things like cut/paste and show hidden files were missing/hard to get to.
