	Nov 11 2008	MARK EVERITT Very useful when you need to jump in and out of a terminal. I use it when I need to do diffs or run a python script etc. (Version 2.2)		0

	Aug 20 2008	LARSEN2K4 Pretty neat... works as advised - Since I'm using the Terminal almost every day, it's really useful to me :) (Version 2.2)		0

	Feb 26 2007	ALANCOOKIE Easy to use, does what it claims, makes life easy for those of us who do not live in the Terminal.app but need to jump in occasionally. (Version 2.1.1)		0

	Feb 25 2007	JBTULE There was a build issue with the original file posted here for 2.1.1, this is fixed now. (Version 2.1.1)		0

	Feb 19 2007	BRANDON EDLING I dig this, especially added to the Finder toolbar. It would be nice to have the option to specify a command that runs after clicking... like ls -l, for example. (Version 2.1)		0

	Feb 19 2007	JBTULE I've tried to correct this in the default case in 2.1. But it's really hard to figure out if the window was just created by the terminal.app, but i think i came up with a way to do it, but it only works if you haven't changed your default shell settings too much.

JBTULE >cd to ... should be a lot faster because it's not using applescript but apple events directly instead. >cd to .. is only designed to be used from the finder toolbar (but that makes more sense because you'd have to navigate from the finder first anyway. And it seems cdf from what you've cited me uses gui scripting which is very sketchy thing to do and unnecessary because the terminal is directly scriptable to run commands.

	Feb 17 2007	PIXXAN Can you think of any reason this would open two terminals? (One to my home directory, the other to the directory Finder was open to.) (Version 2.0)		0

WIDGETMAN Opening a terminal window set to your home directory is Terminal.app's default behavior. Try opening Terminal.app and just closing the default window that pops up and then use this plugin to open a terminal window.

GREG RAVEN OpenTerminalHere.app does the same thing, so I don't consider this unexpected behavior.
