Description Matt Lee 2009-07-20 20:13:08 UTC 
Please describe the problem:
When launching a new terminal, whilst running a 'find' command, the new terminal spawns with the starting path of whatever the find command is currently trawling...

Steps to reproduce:
1. Open GNOME terminal.
2. Type find . -name "*.foo"
3. While it is searching, press control + shift + N


Actual results:
the new terminal will have a strange path when it spawns.

Expected results:
it should have the path i was in when i spawned it, for example ~

Does this happen every time?
yes
