Many AppleScript tools have this problem – any suggestions on how to circumvent this pop-up window on every single launch? I have tried these steps to no obvious effect: https://apple.stackexchange.com/questions/335848/mojave-disable-or-control-the-some-app-name-wants-access-to-control-another

Thanks!

Hi,

I also changed the script to open a new window instead of a new tab. It worked fined on my Intel MacBook Pro, but annoyingly I can't drag the app in the Finder toolbar on my Mac mini M1. Anyone have the same problem ? or even better, a solution ?

Thanks :)

Hey, I ran ./generate.sh iterm. Put the generated script into my finder toolbar. But whenever I tap on it I get this error:

Running macOS Mojave 10.14.4.

It would be nice to have the option to always create a new window instead of a new tab.

I changed the AppleScript slightly to allow this:

tell application "Finder"
	if (count of windows) > 0 then
		set thePath to target of front window
	else
		display dialog "There are no open Finder windows." with icon caution buttons {"OK"} with title "Open iTerm Here..."
		return
	end if
end tell

if not (exists thePath) then
	tell application "Finder" to set theName to name of front window
	display dialog "The location of the Finder window \"" & theName & "\" is not a real location (e.g. smart folder, search, network, trash, etc) and cannot opened in iTerm." with icon caution buttons {"OK"} with title "Open iTerm Here..."
	return
end if
set thePath to quoted form of POSIX path of (thePath as alias)

tell application "iTerm"
	-- Handles the case where iTerm is running but has no windows
	set createdWindow to false
	create window with default profile

	tell current session of current window
		write text "cd " & thePath & " && clear"
	end tell

	activate
end tell

And this works for me, but likely this should be packaged up as an option to the generation script...?

It wasn't immediately obvious that this worked in Catalina, but it does... The documentation should likely be updated?

Thank you for this nifty little tool! I am quite pleased with it.

I noticed the following:

• if iTerm is not open at all, the following error message is produced:
• if iTerm is open without a window, the new window will always open in the home directory
• if an iTerm window is open, everything works as expected if an iTerm window exists

If I were to make a wish, I’d like those scenarios to be

• open iTerm, and a new window in current directory
• open a new window in current directory
• open a new tab in current directory (already works).

How can I help?

FWIW – I am running this tool on macOS 10.15.3 (19D76).
Thanks!

I've checked permits, it looks all good but I've that
"Not authorized to send Apple events to Finder.
Not authorized to send Apple events to Finder. (-1743)"

Not really an issue but I made an icon with the same style as others in the toolbar. If some are interested... I don't know where else to put it and too lazy right now to fork.
