Use "Go To Folder..." and Auto-complete
Authored by: dzurn on Mar 25, '04 05:42:19PM
Not quite a shortcut, but REALLY fast:

Cmd-Shift-G /d[tab]a[tab][enter]

It turns out that the "Go To Folder" dialog will auto-complete whatever you type.

So "/d" will auto-complete (in a second or so, speeds it up) to "/Developer/" then "a" will finish expanding to "/Developer/Applications/". [Enter] to go to the folder, then type the first chars of the app 'til its highlighted".

Amazing, eh? Even better, the next time you use "Go To Folder" it remembers the last folder you navigated to.
