My brother's forced to use a Mac at work (he's a Windows guy) and asked me this, and I didn't know the answer. I thought it'd be interesting to find out, too, since I sometimes use my wife's Powerbook.
You know how in Nautilus or Konqueror (or even Windows Explorer), you can highlight the location bar and get a text version of the path that you're in (e.g., */home/username/documents/pictures/*)? Is there any way to do this in Mac OS X?
I've Googled around and haven't found anything useful. I found this link, which tells you how to see the path visually (but not as text). If you see info on the file you're viewing (Cmd-I), you can *see* the text of the path, but the text isn't highlight-able. Finally, you can drag a file to the terminal and see all the back slashes. That's not terribly ideal either.
Other ideas? Is there a .plist to edit?
