Install homebrew

Open the "Script editor" application and paste the following code:

tell application "Terminal"

end tell

Save it as an application. Mouse over the launch icon you see here, hold control while clicking and select 'copy image'

Now right-click the applescript icon you created earlier. Select get info.

In the upper left corner of the window, you’ll see the applescript launch icon. Click it and hit Command-V
