Havoc was right, simpler patch that uses --working-directory (590 bytes, application/x-compressed-tar)

Description Mark Finlay 2002-12-13 18:37:10 UTC 
I'm going to attach a patch that adds a mime type linking the terminal with
folders. This allow you to:
a. right click on a folder, click open with->Termial and have
gnome-terminal open with that folder as the working directory.
b. click "Open with Terminal" in the sidebar to open the current directory
in a terminal.

It was necessary to add a -w option to gnome-terminal that is
equivelent to --working-directory in the above patch. This allows the
working directory to be passed to the terminal by nautilus.
Comment 3 Havoc Pennington 2002-12-13 19:37:02 UTC 
Why didn't --working-directory work?
Comment 4 Mark Finlay 2002-12-13 19:57:24 UTC 
There could be a simple fix but i think that nautilus was calling:
gnome-terminal --working-directory= /path/to/current/folder

which doesn't work. It should be:
gnome-terminal --working-directory=/path/to/current/folder

So I added -w so that nautilus could call:
gnome-terminal -w /path/to/current/folder

Could this go into 2.2 or will it have to wait for 2.4?
