> it invariably opens a new terminal window Aah I see - do you mean you would like to open the folder in the existing window if it is open? Yes, unfortunately the plugin cannot do this. I have realised that I have been using version 2.1.0, which we have not yet released. I will add it to the plugins distribution system so that everybody can use it. It fixes the problem of opening apps in terminal, as well as your other problems.
