Is there a reverse version of that last one? For navigation I prefer Finder over `cd; ls`, but once I end up where I want to be I generally need a terminal.

edit: Another user replied with what I want as I typed this! Thank you haddr.

You’re referring to the tip to drag the Finder folder onto the Terminal window. There’s another way that is easier if you don’t already have a Terminal window open:

Install the app “cd to…” (https://github.com/jbtule/cdto) and add it to your Finder toolbar. Now clicking that icon will open a new Terminal (or iTerm) window within the selected folder.
