cd to...

Finder Toolbar app to open the current directory in the Terminal.

• It's written in objective-c, and uses the scripting bridge so it's fast.
• It's also shell agnostic. Works equally well when your shell is bash or fish or zsh.

To install "cd to ....app" copy to your Applications folder, and then from the applications folder drag it into the Finder toolbar (10.9 Mavericks later required ⌘ + ⌥) or drag from another finder window to toolbar being customised

To use, just click on the new button and instanly opens a new terminal window.

For old versions to use with iTerm or X11/xterm, using the finder contextual menu "show package contents" and exchange the plugins in the Plugin/Plugin Disabled folders respectively. Next time you run "cd to ..." it should open with the correct application.
