folder from the command line?
Authored by: baba on Oct 30, '01 08:00:46AM

This script is excellent and just what I've been looking for. I'm curious, too, whether there might be a way
to do the reverse -- to open a folder of the current directory from the command line.

Try 'open .' It is the word open, which opens any directory, i.e. "/Users/shortname/" and a period "." which references the current directory.

Try "open ."
For more cool GUI / command-line integration check out,
among others, the pbcopy and pbpaste commands.
