(from the fink commander faq)

 Q4: I ran a command in Terminal using FinkCommander. Now every time I
open a new Terminal window, that same command runs. Why does this
happen? How do I fix it?

This happens whenever you open the "Window Settings" panel for a
Terminal window that was opened to run a specific command and then
click the "Use Settings As Default" button. The same thing would occur
if, for example, you clicked that button for a Terminal window opened
by BBEdit's "Run in Terminal" command.

To fix this, terminate the offending fink or apt-get process and enter
the following command in Terminal:

defaults write com.apple.Terminal ExecutionString

If you can't get access to a functional Terminal window, then open
~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.Terminal.plist in any text editor and
delete the text between the <string></string> tags under the
<key>ExecutionString</key> entry.
