Grouping folders on Finder

Tuesday, 20 de September del 2005

If you are using Finder it is possible to group all the folders instead of have them separated by the 'name sort' effect by doing a little hack.
Open finder and go (press Option+G to go directly) to

/System/Library/Frameworks/ApplicationServices.framework/
Versions/A/Frameworks/LaunchServices.framework/Versions/
A/Resources/Spanish.lproj

(text wrapped intentionally fo fit the page)

and change Spanish.lproj by your used language. Then drag and drop Localized.strings to your favorite text editor and add in the translation of "Folder" a leading space. e.g:

Folder = 'Carpeta'   -- after
Folder = ' Carpeta'  -- before (note the space added in the beginning)

Then restart your computer or your session. Now you'll be able to sort by 'Kind' and all your apps will be grouped.
