Drag the icon in the top center of the window onto your text editor or terminal, it will paste the full path from the Finder window.

Admittedly it's annoying that this feature is hidden and requires dragging with the mouse, but it is possible.

You can also drag any folder or file from the finder into an open or save dialog and it will take you to that folder / select that file

This is one of many features i much appreciate in Mac OS X. Active corners is another powerful features that makes window managing and file moving a bliss. I find macOS much stickier than iOS. I can go without my iPad but not without my mac.

This is great and I miss it every day at work on Windows. I end up Alt-D , Ctrl-C, alt-tab, Ctrl-V to work out where anything is.
