Ah, I see! They spoke about those on the Speedproject forums as well, and I
didn't get it there either... Live and learn. 8-)
You're welcome, glad to help. 8-}
As stated before, if you decide to buy Speedcommander, remember it's a bit on
the pricey side, but OTOH, the license key is good for both the 32b and the
x64-versions.
PS. Vista is still banned from our departments, but I plan to get a copy,
install it in VMware and see what the fuss is all about. We'll probably move to
it in a few years time, or we may skip this generation and hop onto the next.
The new batch of computers we bough (3GHz, 1GB RAM) is great for WinXP but
probably underpowered for Vista+Office 2k7. DS.

The breadcrumbs like in Windows Vista Explorer. Or, in your screenshot, the
Z:\ > Drivers > Compaq > nc6000, etc. I used Vista for a while and really got
into clicking the arrows in between to get dropdown menus of other things in
the folder that I chose in my path. Yet they still left Alt+D functional.
That’s about the only thing I loved about Vista.
I’d definitely digging the Speed Commander! Thanks Sorin!

What are breadcrumbs in this context??
I find myself discovering new features in Speedcommander every day as well
(more or less). Recommending it is hard not to, especially if we're talking the
x64-version and most especially since I actually bought it. 8-) As this is the
only file manager I know of that runs natively in a x64-environment you're
kinda' set. 8-)
Check this one out for a Windows Explorer-lookalike setting for Speedcommander:

Personally I have SC set so that the right window pane is 75% of the total
width, with with a drive-tree (Ctrl-B) and the left pane is a regular
drive-view. It's an "almost" Windows Explorer-lookalike. Like so:
