Summary: PythonLauncher-run scripts have funny $CWD

Initial Comment:
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 $HOME as working 
directory.

PythonLauncher should do something unified, best is probably to 
either always use $HOME, or to use the directory where the script 
is located.

Fixed in PythonLauncher/main.m rev. 1.2 and 1.1.14.1, by doing a chdir() 
to $HOME on startup.
