I know that you say go2shell is only supported up through 10.10, because that was all that was out at the time, and it works great. But 10.11 is now out (and has been for some time) and go2shell does not work with it. Do you plan to make it work with 10.11?

Very cool. Thank you. I noticed a small thing. I view the toolbar as Icon Only. Your icon is a few pixels low compared to the others on the bar.

Just a few... but Steve would notice. :)

Why does version 2.1 open an outbound TCP connection when invoked from a Finder window toolbar?

Works as advertised under Lion. The customizable command is a really nice touch.

Doesn't work with Mavericks finder. You can't drag it to the finder bar.
