Hey,

seems there's a bug in appfinder. When ones open an application from it (especially seen with Terminal), the CWD is set to /usr/share/applications or .local/share/applications (depending on where the .desktop is located).

I guess the correct CWD would be $HOME in that case.

Cheers,

That should be fixed in master. It also support the Path key in desktop files.
