Yeah, the first version works fine indeed.
Agree that only the version https://gist.github.com/gnachman/f61614d0335e185787b0/ea7a3f7b248390efa886557f6917e12a6c9c0cd6 works. Thanks @devinus
- iTerm2 version:
2.9.20160426 beta
Many thanks for this.
Initial version https://gist.github.com/gnachman/f61614d0335e185787b0/ea7a3f7b248390efa886557f6917e12a6c9c0cd6
works fine for iTerm2 ver 3.0.0
Thanks!
Yup, works fine for iTerm2 ver 3.0.0 👍
Works for iTerm2 Build 3.0.0
For those of you new to terminal commands copy and paste this into your terminal.
open -a Atom /Applications/Docker/"Docker Quickstart Terminal.app"/Contents/Resources/Scripts/iterm.scpt
This will open the file you need to copy over in the Atom Editor. You might see strange characters in the file. That's okay. Copy over them with the code above and save the file.
If you're using another Editor replace "Atom" with the name of it. Example:
open -a TextWrangler /Applications/Docker/"Docker Quickstart Terminal.app"/Contents/Resources/Scripts/iterm.scpt
If you're new or rusty with the Terminal here's some insights. (I'm on a Mac.)
cd Applications
will call the current user applications. Typing "ls" will typically list just some Chrome stuff in there.
cd /Applications
will call the path your machine applications are on. Those are the ones you see listed in Finder.
When you need to cd a Folder or File name that uses spaces and not dashes or underscores you need to wrap the full name in quotations. We did this with "Docker Quickstart Terminal.app"
for example.
thanks, the script patch works perfectly in Build 3.0.2
Thanks for this! I can confirm that revision https://gist.github.com/gnachman/f61614d0335e185787b0/ea7a3f7b248390efa886557f6917e12a6c9c0cd6 works with Build 3.0.2 . However, your latest revision does not.
Looks like Docker Toolbox has been patched but not yet released, I used the script from the commit and it worked great:
I used the cmd below to edit the file with sublime:
open -a "Sublime Text" /Applications/Docker/"Docker Quickstart Terminal.app"/Contents/Resources/Scripts/iterm.scpt
Initial version is the one to use, indeed.
