Creating Terminal shortcut

This gist shows how to set up the 'open finder here' shortcut (opf) in a bash or zsh shell. This tutorial is for MacOS, since MacOS uses Finder.

Zsh

Open the .zshrc configuration file.

nano ~/.zshrc

Add the following line:

alias opf='open -a finder $(pwd)'

Optionally, substitute the opf part with your own shortcut command.

Save and exit. Make sure to type exit in your current terminal to re-apply the terminal configuration.

Bash

Open the .bashrc configuration file.

nano ~/.bashrc

Add the following line:

alias opf='open -a finder $(pwd)'

Optionally, substitute the opf part with your own shortcut command.

Save and exit. Make sure to type exit in your current terminal to re-apply the terminal configuration.
