I remember playing Sokoban on Mac around 1994. This version had something I never saw since then: when you clicked on a square, your character would move automatically to that square, provided there existed a path. This was VERY convenient and I miss it.

I'm guessing this only applied to open spaces? Seems like applying that to spaces occupied by blocks would often imply ambiguous push direction.
The algorithm wouldn't push any blocks, but just walk along the way to your destination, way faster than doing it by hand
