PTerm cannot be used for ‘Open terminal here’ in Pharo 12 File Browser #62

In Pharo 12, the File Browser is being replaced by a new one (see: Pharo pull request #16084). It offers a context menu item ‘Open terminal here’ (class: StFileBrowserOpenTerminalCommand) which opens a shell, with the selected directory as the shell’s working directory, through a terminal application outside of Pharo. It would be nice to have a setting for this that can be set to use PTerm instead.

This should probably be handled by extending PharoCommonTools to define ‘terminal’ as a tool: a default one that uses a terminal application can be provided by the ‘NewTools’ packages, for which PTerm can then provide a replacement.
