Ah, I don't usually use file managers that way, I guess.

I just hit the "Columns" mode, and it seems to be based on the Mac OS X way
of doing it.  (i.e., leftmost folder is "Home", for example... then
I double-click a folder in my home directory, and the next column appears
with its files and folders; "Home" still remains at the left... and so on.)

Not exactly the same, but seems more useful to retain context. ;)
