I did this often in Windows so wanted the Mac equivalent. Very
useful and easy.

Hello,
ET thanks for the option idea, I just checked and hitting command-option-C in
the finder echos out copying file as path name, so let see if that really
worked:
Yes! it worked. Also of note, control-option C will copy Style in Mail and I
expect Pages.
Best wishes,
Copy as Pathname Finder-
Select document/folder in Finder.
VO-shift-M.
Select Copy but do not press Enter. While holding Option key, press
Enter.
Paste contents of clipboard into document or in Terminal window.

For your second question, copy the folder and then if you paste it into
terminal it should paste the path. For some reason, I don't find the need to
copy a path as much on the Macintosh as I do on PC computers. I thought I had
pasted into plain text files in textedit to get the path also, but
I usually turn off Quick Nav when I am editing a document such as in Pages or
TextEdit. If I am just navigating through dialog boxes, I have it on. If you
wanted, you could just have it off all of the time and just use Control Option
and arrow keys to navigate.

Hi folks.
I’m just wondering when I should use quick nav?
I only turn it on, when I’m on the web.
Also, is there a way to copy the path of a folder? And how would I copy the
path, once I’ve found the folder.
