When I need such a thing, I use Chipp Walters' altFldHeader plugin. It dosn't give the OS X blue headers, so it doesn't look as good as Richard's but it provides all the functionality that I need. If anyone wants to check it out, go to <http://www.altuit.com/webs/altuit2/altPluginCover/about.htm>, click the "Download plugins" link on the left. When you get to the downloads page, it's near the end.
