Templates is, probably, even less used by normal people than preferences, so that's not a reason either. Anyway, I'm not talking about hiding the icon, just the directory. > > ...which should be as virtual as Trash, which is mapped to ~/.Trash > It is not virtual. It's just a folder. Check again, Trash is purely virtual, as is "ZBR's Home". It simply maps to ~/.Trash (which is what "ZBR's Home" do -- ~/ -- and what Templates should do too). Why is Trash done the right way and Templates not? Trash is _EVEN_ more used than Templates :) Regards, Rui
