How to add "Open terminal here" to Nautilus' context menu?

You have to install the nautilus-open-terminal package from the universe repositories for Ubuntu versions up to Ubuntu 15.04:

sudo apt-get install nautilus-open-terminal

If you want to install it with apturl, use this URL: apt://nautilus-open-terminal

Then:

nautilus -q  

In order to restart Nautilus

In Ubuntu 15.10, the functionality is already included in nautilus!

nautilus-open-terminal and nautilus-actions packages are available in Universe repository of Ubuntu 14.04. So run the below commands to enable universe repository and also to install above mentioned packages.

sudo add-apt-repository universe
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install nautilus-open-terminal
sudo apt-get install nautilus-actions

Finally run nautilus -q command to quit nautilus.Now you can be able to see Open in terminal option on right-clicking.

Here is my script to open terminal in the current directory,

I built my own after the open-terminal plugin stopped working for me

#!/bin/bash
##################################
# A nautilus script to open gnome-terminal in the current directory
# place in ~/.gnome2/nautilus-scripts
##################################
#                                       Remove file:// from CURRENT_URI
gnome-terminal --working-directory=`echo "$NAUTILUS_SCRIPT_CURRENT_URI" | cut -c 8-`

PS: Here is some bonus info

Assigning a shortcut to the script

• Add executable script to ~/.gnome2/nautilus-scripts
• Wait some time - nautilus regenerates accels file

• Edit file ~/.gnome2/accels/nautilus

• Find line similar to this one:

; (gtk_accel_path "<Actions>/ScriptsGroup/script_file:\\s\\s\\shome\\sgautam\\s.gnome2\\snautilus-scripts\\sopen-terminal" "")

• Remove comment (semicolon) and specify shortcut like this:

(gtk_accel_path "<Actions>/ScriptsGroup/script_file:\\s\\s\\shome\\sgautam\\s.gnome2\\snautilus-scripts\\sopen-terminal" "<Primary><Shift>t")

• Save file.
• Logout - login.

Just use:

sudo apt-get install nautilus-extension-gnome-terminal 

and Logout/Login or reboot.

I have just installed Ubuntu 14.04 Desktop edition today 07-18-2014, and all I had to do to get the command line option in Nautilus was the following in a terminal:

sudo apt-get install nautilus-open-terminal
nautilus -q

You'll need to install nautilus-admin (make sure to install the additional files) to have the right click option and others as well, since nautilus-open-terminal is no longer maintained.

If you are using Ubuntu 18.04 or newer:

sudo apt install nautilus-admin 

I used @Gautam's solution until I found it will not work (I mean a script itself) if path contains non-ascii characters because it's URL encoded.

Here is my little fix which is working at least for me. So, the script should look like this:

#!/usr/bin/gnome-terminal

According to gnome-terminal docs, when you execute this:

cd path/to/dir
gnome-terminal

gnome-terminal will use path/to/dir as working directory, which explains why that script works.

Do

sudo apt-get update

and try again.

Or

cd /tmp  
wget http://mirrors.kernel.org/ubuntu/pool/universe/n/nautilus-open-terminal/nautilus-open-terminal_0.20-1_amd64.deb
sudo dpkg -i nautilus*deb
sudo apt-get install -f

1. Find the .bashrc file in Home.
2. Open it with any text editor.
3. Add a line at the end: cd $PWD
4. Save it.
5. Close all instances of Nautilus
6. Now, when you open Nautilus you will get to see the "Open in terminal" option in the right-click menu and it loads the current directory path when clicked.
