Quick Launch iTerm

Adds a button to MacOS Finder to launch iTerm at the currently-selected directory. Saves time versus dragging the directory to iTerm's dock icon or right clicking and then finding in the menu.

Installation

1. Download Quick Launch iTerm.app.zip, unzip it, & move into ~/Applications.
2. In Finder, hold option command and drag this app from your Applications directory onto the top bar of Finder. It will add itself as an icon.

Usage

When using Finder, click this icon to open the currently-selected directory in iTerm.

Note: When using this the first time, MacOS will prompt you that the application cannot be verified. Visit System Preferences > Security & Privacy, and click "open anyway".

Building

If you prefer to build the app yourself:

1. Double click Quick Launch iTerm.scpt to open it in Apple's Script Editor.
2. In Script Editor, use File > Export > "as application" and save to ~/Applications.
3. To add your desired icon, right click on Quick Launch iTerm.app that was just created and select "Show Package Contents". Replace Contents/Resources/droplet.icns with your desired icons file.
4. Lastly, follow installation instructions above.
