After reading people's gripes and new ideas about improving the
Macintosh finder interface. I would like to have some input as well.
All the ideas are wonderful! However, I would like to suggest some
minor improvements to the finder. "UNDO"! The "UNDO" command has been
in the Edit menu for a long time ( I don't know in which verson of
finder apple started to include it ), but even in the most recent
System Upgrade 6.0, UNDO only works with CUT/COPY/PASTE. Ahh, I think
UNDO should be more useful than this.
Please apple, let me UNDO for the following operations:
o Resizing, dragging the window
o New folder
o Dragging application(s)/file(s) from one folder to another
(regardless of the heirarchy), from desktop to another folder or vice
versa
o Dragging appl(s)/file(s) to Trash Can (before EMPTY TRASH)
All these are small things that I can UNDO them manually, however I
like a program that gives user flexibility.
It would be really nice if I can UNDO the following:
o Empty Trash
o Set Startup
o Change the memory size with Get Info
o Lock/unlock an appl/file
Am I hoping for a little too much ? Oh well, apple may even be working
on it right now, who knows !
All responses are welcome!
"VOX CLAMANTIS IN DESERTO" -- ahh, who else will I speak for !
