Actually, all you need to hold down is the option key and double click on
a folder. This is called "tunnelling"
*****WARNING ABOUT TUNNELLING*****
If you already have the maximum number of windows open and you attempt to
tunnel, YOU WILL CRASH.
The only "workaround" is to drastically increase the max # of open windows
in the Finder using something like ResEdit to modify the LAYO resource or
to use the Layout application which is floating around.
