Finder quits on me more often than any other application.
Good heavens, Steve! What are you doing to it? I only manage to crash the
Finder about once a week.
While I feel that it's probably safe to accept the always well-informed
opinion of Paul Berkowitz that the X Finder is 'incomparably better' than
what went before, it still behaves like a piece of buggy freeware in some
crucial areas. No matter what's going on 'under the hood', one of the
Finder's most important functions is making it easy to locate your stuff by
displaying it in a reliable and consistent manner. That just doesn't happen.
Icon and list views reformat themselves at random, requiring endless visits
to the view options dialog to restore them to the preferred layout. And
please don't suggest I use column views instead. They provide a useful
option for getting places, but that's not how I want to look at a folder's
contents when I've arrived.
When the Finder looks stupid (and it often does) the whole Mac OS looks
stupid - I'm sure that's not what Apple wants.
Mr Tea
