Sorry, perhaps I didn't explain it clearly enough. This only happens in ~/Desktop, if you copy the same test script to ~/Desktop/test and run it, you'll get the expected output - '/home/user/Desktop/test'.
I don't know why it only happens on the desktop (ie in the Desktop folder), but it does. -- scripts running from desktop : $PWD = /home/user https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/103144 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug contact for nautilus in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
