But, there is a command line tool:
mdls -name kMDItemWhereFroms filename
will report the URL(s) associated with the file, which you can then copy from the terminal.]]></description>

Well, I use FruitMenu and I think it&#039;s good but I thinks it&#039;s better if it was a part of the operating system.
With FruitMenu you can also customise the right-button-menu in the same way, a good idea...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[What about, &quot;Click, There it is.&quot; ?

This was my favorite timesaver- beyond the customizable apple menu. (I used sail through deep catalogs of files completely based on a network of aliases I managed in my apple menu. I miss that ability!)

I TOTALLY agree about the trash thing, and I&#039;m worried about this time travel nonsense- I hate not being able to delete crap for good when I want to.

I HATE permissions, file vault and passwords. I never want my computer telling me I can&#039;t do this or that. I&#039;m the boss, no one uses my computer but me, and if I forget my password, that&#039;s my prerogative!

Sometimes Final Cut Pro can&#039;t find files, so it asks ME to help- and it usually takes about 30 seconds. Isn&#039;t the computer supposed to know what files it has, where they are, and HOW BIG they are all the time, never fail, info at my fingertips, serving me the information I&#039;ve entrusted to it? These ridiculous problems make me wish you could buy 5 minutes with Steve Jobs and make him listen to these absurd problems.

I used both a PC and mac at one job, and I got awfully used to the cut and paste files option. I&#039;m always shifting stuff around between my drives to make room for video captures or renders etc. I hate trying to remember which files are going what direction.

I always wished there were F-keys like that old system 7 third party thing where you could program the fkeys with long strings of text. Seriously, I could do this in 1982 with my vic20.

My last big beef may have been solved by a third party, but I wish I could mount all my web servers into the finder so they look EXACTLY like hard drives or folders, except they&#039;re remote. That would be so much better than Fetch, and solve the dot mac dilemma in iWeb.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Windowshade was good, as was &#039;folder tabs&#039; but did anyone here try BeOS? They combined the two approaches, so that the window title bar was a horizontally-movable tab.

That meant that you could have several windows on top of each other, with their tabs beside each other, exactly like the tabs on a physical hanging-folder index system. The frontmost window had a bright yellow tab and all others were pale grey. (OK, we could compromise on the bright yellow). Switching from one window to another (even a window from another app) was therefore much easier because it didn&#039;t require moving or hiding anything, neither did it require a visit to the dock or the window menu.

There were a couple of extensions for classic Mac which implemented BeOS window bars, which I used all the time, but AFAICT there are none for OSX. I miss it!]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Ummm . . . the forgotten Classic &#039;classics&#039;. Being one who still happily does a lot of work in Classic, I do miss some of these features very much. When I have to start up one of my older PowerBooks with OS 8.1 &#039;all cherried out&#039; it does seem faster and all very  familiar again. I don&#039;t see why Apple couldn&#039;t add some of the simpler things  to OS X like WindowShade, Flash menubar on alert, and Print FINDER window. For those of us who have used them, they are very useful -- for those who haven&#039;t, they may find them useful. I also agree with the poster #43 &#039;mnb&#039;. Speed. Please add it! Classic is STILL sooooooo much faster!]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[For me, the most useful part of the &quot;put-away&quot; command (Cmd-Y, I still remember) had nothing to do with the trash.

It was that it could be used on files that had been dragged to the desktop.

Removing this functionality basically broke the desktop metaphor. Now it is something useless that gets cluttered. IIRC, this functionality was present at least in some version of System 7.]]></description>
