On a related note, Lion Terminal also has new Services for looking up man pages: Open man page in Terminal displays the selected man page topic in a new terminal window, and Search man Pages in Terminal performs "apropos" on the selected text. (Dragging into the terminal view within the tab merely inserts the pathname on its own, as in older versions of Terminal.) In addition, Lion Terminal will open a new terminal window if you drag a folder (or pathname) onto the Terminal application icon, and you can also drag to the tab bar of an existing window to create a new tab.įinally, if you drag a folder or pathname onto a tab (in the tab bar) and the foreground process is the shell, it will automatically execute a "cd" command. Look in the Applications/Utilities/ folder for the Terminal application. Services appear in the Services submenu of each application menu, and within the contextual menu (Control-Click or Right-Click on a folder or pathname). The Terminal application or console gives us access to the Unix command line, or shell. You can even assign command keys to them. These Services work in all applications, not just Finder, and they operate on folders as well as absolute pathnames selected in text. There's also New Terminal Tab at Folder, which will create a tab in the frontmost Terminal window (if any, else it will create a new window). System Preferences > Keyboard > Keyboard Shortcuts > ServicesĮnable New Terminal at Folder. These options should be next to each other. Scroll down in the right-hand menu, and select the options that say New Terminal at Folder and New Terminal Tab at Folder. As with most Services, these are disabled by default, so you'll need to enable this to make it appear in the Services menu. In the Shortcuts panel, click on Services in the left-hand menu.
#MACOS OPEN TERMINAL HERE MAC OS X#
As of Mac OS X Lion 10.7, Terminal includes exactly this functionality as a Service.
