Public bug reported:
How to reproduce:
Create a script file in any folder you like, for example in /home/user/Desktop/
Here's the script:
#!/bin/bash
echo "${PWD}" > testfile
Now make this file executable and double click it. You'll see a message like
this:
https://dl.dropbox.com/u/71236259/2012-10-07-140215_622x101_scrot.png
Click "execute" or "execute in terminal".
I expected the "testfile" to be created in the same folder
(/home/user/Desktop/ in this example), but really it's going to be
created in my home directory (/home/user/)
Really I was tired of removing some pngs in one of my folders, so I
created a script to remove all pngs (rm *.png) and executed it this way.
Now I've lost all my png files in my home directory :(
