  3. git clone https://github.com/itd/OpenIniTerm.git OpenInIterm.app
  4. open -R OpenInIterm.app
  5. Drag the OpenInIterm icon to the top of the Finder window.
  6. Click the icon to open a new iTerm window to the current Finder window path.
  7. Shift-click to open it in an iTerm tab.
  8. Enjoy!

Tested in OS X 10.6.8 and 10.7.3

It's handy for me. YMMV.
