@nixCraft Both command line and GUIs are great, as well as keyboard commands. Everything has it's purpose and use what you can to do things better.

@LanguageMan1 @nixCraft Also, you can drag-and-drop a Finder window’s title icon into a Terminal session to paste its path there or one or more files’ Finder entries to paste their full location with path, readily escaped for the shell if necessary. I’d like to know if these features are still coming from the NeXT / OpenStep roots of the operating system. |
@LanguageMan1 @nixCraft Yes. On macOS I‘m constantly switching between Finder and Terminal depending on what fits the task better.
I have a Terminal shortcut in my Finder windows’ toolbar that opens a shell session in the current folder’s directory and I use "open ." from the shell to open a Finder window for the cwd.
