In Finder (OS X 10.5.8), is there a way to collapse all folders in list view?

Question

I know that cmd-option-left arrow will do this for any one folder, but is there any way to do this for all folders in a given list view?

Press Cmd-A to select all, then press Cmd-Opt-Left to collapse all.

	Tested on Lion, so it might not work for you. – Daniel Beck Jul 28 '11 at 17:52
	Confirmed on 10.6 (actually, isn't `left` enough?) – slhck Jul 28 '11 at 20:00
	@slhck Subdirectories will only be collapsed with Cmd-Opt-Left. – Daniel Beck Jul 29 '11 at 8:49
