10.4: Quickly paste object paths in the Terminal
Authored by: alblue on May 11, '05 01:21:59PM

This isn't 10.4 specific. In fact, you've been able to drag-and-drop an icon straight onto an open Terminal window to get the full path in there for a long time now.

What changed in 10.4 is that the manual copy-and-paste now puts the full path in; whereas in 10.3 it only put the name in. However, dragging and dropping the icon did put the full path in on 10.3 as well as 10.2 and probably 10.1 as well.

Sorry if it wasn't clear; that's what I was trying to say: pasting now gets a path, whereas before you had to drag-n-drop to get the path...
