Nautilus, Explorer and Finder are GUI file browsers of Ubuntu, Windows, and Mac OS respectively. No matter under which system, it would be extremely convenient if users can open a terminal with path being the same as location of the file browsers or vice versa. Here I show the ways of doing such under each system.

Ubuntu
Open terminal in Nautilus:
just install nautilus-open-terminal with your Synaptic Package Manager, then you can find a “open in terminal” item in your context menu of your Nautilus.

Open Nautilus in terminal

nautilus . 

Windows
Open cmd line in Explorer
install cmdhere tool in the collections of powertoys provided by Microsoft

Open Explorer in terminal

start .

Mac OS
Open terminal in Finder
Download a simple cdto … app here and drag it onto your Finder toolbar. Clicking it will open a terminal with the current path in Finder.

Open Finder in terminal
