Can’t make «class fvtg» of window 1 of application "Finder" into type alias about open-iterm-or-terminal-here... HOT 3 CLOSED

Hi,

According to https://apple.stackexchange.com/a/37772, it looks like this happens if the Finder window contains a search result or other "special" thing. I tried that and I get this error too. Is your frontmost Finder window search result, smart folder, etc?

I don't think there's a workaround for this because those places don't really exist in the filesystem (so Terminal can't go there), but I'll look into updating the app sometime this week to make it give a nicer message when this happens.

a465f0d improves this by giving a clearer message about why it can't go there. While I was at it, I also added a check and nicer message when there are no Finder windows.

Please pull the latest and regenerate.

@rkanter Thanks for the update and thank for your work on this project! Nice to see a better error message.

I'm pretty sure I was trying to open a regular directory containing some projects I'm coding on.

When I find some time I'll try to dig in to see if I can get this to work for me.
