Anyway to show full path to current directory in the top of the Finder window?

Is there anyway to make it so the full path to the current directory that I'm working in will appear in the top of the Finder window? For example, if I'm in ~/sites/domain.com/images/cart/ I'd rather it show that full path instead of just cart.

Use an alternate finder. Not sure if Path Finder does what you want, but you could look into alternatives for Finder.

Alternatively, you could run this ( http://www.macosxhints.com/article.p...70416161655621 )

It's already there, at least a graphic depiction of the path,
just press the Apple key when you click on "cart"

view>customize toolbar
there's an icon called path - it gives a pulldown list of the path to the current folder.

Cmd-clicking the title bar icon will show you the same thing without having to add another toolbar button, but it's an on-demand function, it won't make the full path visible in the title bar, which is what I think you're wanting? I don't know of any way of doing that with OS X's Finder, but CocoaTech's Path Finder might do it.
