When right-clicking a file in the sidebar, one of the options is "Show in OS." If you can, for OS X rename that option to "Show in Finder." Then it'll be much more recognizable and easy to spot out that option, since that's what other OS X apps (iTunes) use. It's very unclear what 'OS' is.

Good idea, would be Explorer on Windows. See adobe/brackets#2128 (comment)

I could swear we had a starter bug for this already, but I can't seem to find it so... marking this 'starter bug.'

I'd like to take this.
But I don't know what strings I should use.

Linux should stay Show in OS, right?
Are Finder and Explorer the same in every language? (specifically some with other letters like Russian, Chinese or Persian)

Should we use sth like this:

"CMD_SHOW_IN_OS": "Show in OS", // Linux only
"CMD_SHOW_IN_OS_FILEMANAGER": "Show in {0}" // {0} is Explorer/Finder

I think it might be a lot easier to create 3 separate strings, one per OS, since it would be easier to translate.

In Spanish we can translate Explorer to Explorador, making it Mostrar en el Explorador. But not sure if we translate Finder, so if we don't, it should be Mostrar en Finder. So it might not be just a string replacement.

@hipwelljo Closing, since #6982 implements the desired behavior.
