Would it be possible to make some sort of remap where command-clicking or highlighting some text in the terminal triggers iTerm2 to attempt to cd <text>? Would make life somewhat easier when navigating around complex directory trees with long names.
I found these instructions for making command-click trigger an action on the clicked filename or word. But after trying the Run command... option with cd \1 (for "cd to this clicked item"), that doesn't seem to work.
The answer below evidently does not work on remote logins; if anyone has a solution that does so, I will accept your answer.

Preferences->Profiles->Advanced->Semantic Historyand useRun coprocess...andecho cd \1to get the desired result.Don't ask me why this works or how I found this solution.
