iTerm nightly compatibility

I run iTerm nightly (using homebrew cask) but I’d been having issues with Sublime Terminal. I reported it the iTerm developer George Nachman and he cleaned up the iTerm.sh file. His version opens in a new tab of the current terminal by default, which I consider to be the best anyway.

The cleaned up version is available at https://gist.github.com/gnachman/b9ae9cf06c44b5a95edf and it seems reasonable to use it, but I’ll hold off for feedback before doing a pull request.

Nothing special, I just tossed in an activate call in three places (too bad GFM doesn’t support highlighting a specific line)

@jcrben cleaned version didn’t work for me until I changed

tell application "System Events"
    count(processes whose name is "iTerm")
end tell

…to

tell application "System Events"
    count(processes whose name is "iTerm2")
end tell
