Listed Folder view for all folders

fh-design · 01-16-2004, 07:32 AM

I asked me if it's possible to set list view for all folders. Its to stupid to open up all folders and set them to list view. Could this be done through the command line?

Maybe you could use this old Jaguar hint to do this:

There seems to be a thought that setting a window the way you want and then removing all the .DS_Store files from all your directories will do it, but I am suspect of it's viability.

I ask me what would happen when i would set the "ComputerUseCustomIconViewOptions" and "ComputerUseCustomListViewOptions" to 0 ? I guess this could solve it ;-)

Delete all the .DS_Store files, then set your view options for "All Windows"
