It seems that there are two solutions: use terminal (mv original_folder new_folder) or stop hiding your hidden files (http://dyor.com/hWZc1T shows you how to do this...not easy, but worth it). Good article. Thanks. I had a problem with dropping hidden files as well (mine were .gitignore files).

Umm...no. Sorry. Your logic is affected by your flaming. There are not two "cake" folders in the download. There is a cake_ folder with a child folder called cake. Any non-absent-minded person would realize that the parent folder within the zip file represents the entire CakePHP PROJECT (aka distribution) and that the APP and CAKE directories are two top level directories. Now comes the fun when you set up XAMPP and Eclipse. Rather than storing your projects (APP folders) and the cake core in the root of XAMPP, you are instructed to create a nice little subdirectory called "cake" (or "cakeprojects" or "stuff"; that would ease your apparent confusion). Whatever you call it does not matter. Now you can have a cake\cake or cakeprojects\cake or stuff\cake. Rather than blaming the "developers," you should realize that the "developers" did not write that tutorial. A developer (NB: singular), community member, or cake guru wrote it. @Anonymous: You won't get code hinting for associated models without a little hacking. Check out comment 11 on the bakery article referenced above. “My biggest criticism yet of CakePHP: the developers didn’t spend any time thinking of the repercussions from naming a directory and its child the same thing.”

Never visited but I have driven past, looks like a general equivalent of Celebration Station (which I remember fondly). http://www.austinspark.com/ But... sigh... yeah, there's not much minigolf any longer.

Clearly only slow children would dress like that, therefore the sign makes total sense. I’m pretty sure that the reason why it says “slow children” is because of the way they’re dressed.
