Open iTerm2 instead of terminal

I'm setting up a new Mac laptop and I installed cd to in my Applications folder. However, when I'm in Finder and open cd to via Spotlight, it opens the stock Terminal app instead of iTerm. I've used it like this in the past, but can't remember if I had to do something special to get it to work.

I have set iTerm as the default terminal through its menu. I'm on OSX 10.15.1 Catalina.

Thanks!

For Catalina I had to rewrite everything, and no longer support alternative Terminals. It's too much work for me to support when I don't use it.

Maybe OpenInTerminal-Lite would work for you.

Or feel free to fork.

Just to note in case it helps others: for the time being, the version 2.6 seems to work. (Using Mojave.)

I'm also use iTerms2 for cdto app. It's very handy nicely app.
Bad news for discontinue support 3rd-party terminals.

@l3ender You may use the older version 2.6.0.
Tested it still works fine on macOS 11.4 (Big sur) M1 chip via Rosetta.

My 10ct to this: I work in a company full of IT people. Nobody uses the plain Apple Terminal.

This may sound strong, but I suggest dropping the support for Apples Terminal and instead to focus on 3rd party terminals. IMHO this is an app focussed on techies, so that feature makes no sense for me.

Thanks for developing this, but I will uninstall now.

After that, I use OpenInTerminal instead because it's support arm64.
