Oh wonderful! Been looking for a similar solution myself as can't
understand why Finder by default shows everything in alphabetical order
with folders showing in spurious places. Hope I'm making sense.

I am not sure I agree with this.
I find that if I am in column view
then setting the view options with command J to arrange by name and sort by
kind pretty much delivers this result.
For example If I do this on my documents folder I find at the top of the window
are my folder alias files but after that the folders are all grouped together
alphabetically followed by a similar alphabetical list of the single files in
the . Given that that Finder pretty much treats the folder alias as a folder
anyway this makes some sense.
So in most practical sense this this replicates the Windows or Android or
Linux arrangement

No there is no way. I just have learned to deal with it for the 4 years I have
had the mac. I kind of like it this way. Why not if you want this feature go to
apple's support page and find the feedback link. I have put many of my
suggestions there and most of them made it.
If I am wrong let me know as I just kind of don't need this feature anymore.
lol! I normally go by date modified only. and I have an excel spread sheet in
my head of everything on my computer so for me finding thing is not hard about
80 percent of the time.

hey all,
the one thing i hate about finder on the mac is that files and folders are all
thrown together.
is there a way to put the folders at the top and the files below the folders as
on windows?
I tried sorting my kind and that worked sort of but i still want the folders
and files to be alphabetical.
any help on this would be fantastic.
thanks
Michael
