PythonLauncher suffers from the general .app problem that it's working directory is "/". This affects scripts run with PythonLauncher without a terminal window: they inherit that home directory. Scripts run with a terminal window get HOMEasworkingdirectory.PythonLaunchershoulddosomethingunified,bestisprobablytoeitheralwaysuseHOME as working directory. PythonLauncher should do something unified, best is probably to either always use HOMEasworkingdirectory.PythonLaunchershoulddosomethingunified,bestisprobablytoeitheralwaysuseHOME, or to use the directory where the script is located.

Logged In: YES user_id=45365 Fixed in PythonLauncher/main.m rev. 1.2 and 1.1.14.1, by doing a chdir() to $HOME on startup.
