## cd to... [![Latest Release](https://img.shields.io/github/release/jbtule/cdto.svg)](https://github.com/jbtule/cdto/releases/latest)

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`.

### Usage:

Download [Latest cdto.zip](https://github.com/jbtule/cdto/releases/latest)

To install "cd to ....app" copy to your Applications folder, and then from the applications folder ⌘ drag it into the Finder toolbar or drag from another finder window to toolbar being customized.

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

### Settings

To turn on feature that identifies automatically opened Terminal windows, and closes them when using *cd to*.

```bash
defaults write name.tuley.jay.cd-to cdto-close-default-window -bool true
```

To change the window scheme for Terminal Windows from default.

_Eg. if you wanted cd to windows to be "Red Sands"_

```bash
defaults write name.tuley.jay.cd-to cdto-new-window-setting -string "Red Sands"
```
