Applescript to launch iTerm2 Version 3+ from OS X Finder via keyboard shortcut or Toolbar

Description

Based on info from http://peterdowns.com/posts/open-iterm-finder-service.html but with modified behavior and fixed to work with iTerm2 version 3 or later. It will not work with older versions of iTerm. The modified behavior is to open a new terminal window for each invocation instead of reusing an already open window. Update - The original author released a build script for the newer iTerm2 versions at https://github.com/peterldowns/iterm2-finder-tools that keeps the original behavior of reusing an open iTerm2 window.

To open iTerm2 at selected folder with keyboard shortcut

  1. Run Automator, select a new Service
  2. Select Utilities -> Double click ‘Run AppleScript’
  3. Service receives selected 'folders' in 'finder.app'
  4. Paste script:

# To use, run this script, then click on a window.
# Output is in the format: [<name>=<value> <name>=<value> ...]
# Known problem: when WM_NAME is used as fallback for the 'title="<string>"' criterion,
# quotes in "<string>" are not escaped properly. This is a problem with the output of `xprop`,
# reported upstream: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=66807

This is a python script to generate client OpenVPN configuration files. This is based mostly on the easyrsa script and is much simpler to understand.
import os
import socket
from OpenSSL import crypto, SSL
# OpenVPN is fairly simple since it works on OpenSSL. The OpenVPN server contains
# a root certificate authority that can sign sub-certificates. The certificates
# have very little or no information on who they belong to besides a filename
# and any required information. Everything else is omitted or blank.
# The client certificate and private key are inserted into the .ovpn file
# which contains some settins as well and the entire thing is then ready for

Restore rEFInd as default boot manager from Windows after updates

After losing access to rEFInd yet again (Windows 10 Anniversary Edition), I was able to find the proper invocation of BCDEdit thanks to a helpful person on StackOverflow. None of the Microsoft documentation mentions this, but you NEED single quotes around {bootmgr} for sure if you are in the PowerShell shell, but possibly also if you are in the Command Prompt. This allowed me to add a new entry for rEFInd and I've had to do this multiple times so I know it works on Windows 10.

bcdedit /set {bootmgr} path \EFI\refind\refind_x64.efi

becomes

bcdedit /set '{bootmgr}' path \EFI\refind\refind_x64.efi
