Did you know that you can click and drag the little folder icon in a Finder window’s title bar to copy/move the folder to another location? A secondary click on the title or the folder icon brings up a context menu listing the parent folders of the currently selected folder.

Super Zoom in Leopard
25 12 2007
I was exploring and tampering with my keyboard and found like the coolest amazing trick ever. You need an external mouse with a trackball or what I call a scroll wheel. Hold the Ctrl key down while you scroll up with your trackball to zoom in. You are still able to activate and control clicks and everything in super zoom. You feel like you are inside a new world. Scroll down with the trackball until you are at your normal screen. Merry XMAS! -Lane
