Terminal here?
Last modified: 2005-02-04 20:27:41 UTC
Could we please have a folder operation for opening a terminal at the selected directory. Would be really useful.
This is already present in an extension for Nautilus. See this mailing list post: http://lists.gnome.org/archives/nautilus-list/2004-May/msg00022.html
The link within that post 404's
This seems like an interesting extra and I'm glad that is is there for those power users who want it but I'd hate to have it included by default because if an ordinary Desktop user is forced to use the command line it means the Desktop has failed them. as mentioned the mailing list post http://lists.gnome.org/archives/nautilus-list/2004-May/msg00022.html includes a linke to a tarball which is no longer avaialable http://www.cluecoder.org/manny/packages/nautilus-open-terminal/nautilus-open-terminal-0.1.tar.gz maybe try this instead? http://www.es.gnome.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb/gnome-toolets/nautilus/nautilus-terminal-here?rev=1.1&content-type=text/x-cvsweb-markup&cvsroot=GNOME #!/bin/sh # # This script opens a gnome-terminal in the directory you select. # # Distributed under the terms of GNU GPL version 2 or later # # Copyright (C) Keith Conger <acid@twcny.rr.com> # # Install in your ~/Nautilus/scripts directory. # You need to be running Nautilus 1.0.3+ to use scripts. cd $NAUTILUS_SCRIPT_CURRENT_URI exec xterm
My MegaPatch for Nautilus already has this feature too (it uses gnome-terminal) - see Bug 145427 The "Open Terminal Here" is not visible in the UI and is only accessible via Ctrl+Shift+T.
Already discussed in bug 91989. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 91989 ***
