I am always looking for ways of emulating many Linux things on the Mac. I must admit I use the Terminal window almost exclusively for doing my work but there are times that using the Finder is just faster.

Then, often when I find the directory I have been looking for I want to get a Terminal window that is in that same directory. Typically I have just opened a Terminal window and cd’ed to the location – which can be quite laborious. So, finally, I looked around for a solution. I found a nice little Finder button called cdto. This will put a button on the Finder window and open a Terminal in the same directory as where the Finder is currently pointing.

Nice…
