cd to3.1.3

Clicking cd to’s Finder toolbar button opens a new Terminal window at the directory currently displayed in Finder. It provides a direct handoff from browsing folders graphically to working in their command-line location, and it also responds to Finder selections: selecting a package opens its parent directory, while an item inside a package opens that package’s own directory. To set it up, place cd to.app in Applications, then Command-drag it into the Finder toolbar, or drag it from another Finder window while customizing the toolbar.

Written in Objective-C, cd to uses the scripting bridge and Apple events for quick launching, and it works with bash, fish, zsh, or tcsh rather than depending on one shell. Settings can identify Terminal windows opened automatically and close them when cd to is used, close extra windows, choose a different Terminal window scheme or theme, and clear Terminal scrollback. Terminal is the supported application in the current version, with no plugin support; earlier project integrations included iTerm 2, X11/xterm, and PathFinder. Its handling of special characters and apostrophes in paths also addresses common causes of failed directory changes.

cd to 3.1.3 is a macOS System Tools utility distributed as freeware, with the listed Apple Silicon (arm64) build alongside the project’s universal-binary support for Apple Silicon and Intel. Compatibility notes cover macOS Mojave and indicate expected operation on Catalina. This release restores the name cd to.app, fixes opening windows when Finder has no selection, hides the icon from the Dock, and corrects behavior for selected folders and packages.
