Finder Toolbar app to open the current directory in the Terminal

Source

A small macOS utility adds a button to the Finder toolbar that opens a new Terminal window (or other supported terminal) positioned in the directory currently displayed in Finder. The app is written in Objective‑C and communicates with the terminal via the scripting bridge, allowing fast execution and shell‑agnostic behavior for shells such as bash, zsh, fish, or tcsh.

Installation consists of copying the “cd to.app” bundle into the Applications folder and dragging it onto the Finder toolbar; clicking the button instantly launches the terminal in the selected folder. Optional defaults can be set to close automatically opened Terminal windows, to apply a specific terminal window theme, or to adjust how the app treats package directories.

The project is maintained as a stable, universal binary supporting both Apple Silicon and Intel Macs, and it includes a range of minor fixes and enhancements across versions, such as icon updates, bug fixes for special characters, and hardened, notarized builds compatible with macOS Mojave and later.
