Open Terminal shortcut for Nautilus File Browser Ubuntu Jaunty 9.04


It is useful to have a shortcut menu for launching Terminal by right clicking on a folder from Nautilus File Browser. This works for Ubuntu Jaunty 9.04, Intrepid 8.10. Probably this shoudl work for previous versions as well.

For this "nautilus-open-terminal" package needs to be installed.

sudo apt-get install nautilus-open-terminal

Or,
Synaptic package manager can be used to install this package:



Then, logout and log back again on Ubuntu. Now, "Open in Terminal" option is available, when a folder is "right-clicked"



BTW,

For windows, to launch "Command promt" by right clicking on Explorer, use this Microsoft Power Toy, "Open Cmd Window Here"

This works for Ubuntu 9.10 Karmic Koala as well.
