Nope. It rather appears you think that GUI app should have its cwd set to
its bundle path, which is very definitely not true (and, actually, there
would be no reason for such behaviour).
See NSFileManager, and/or use absolute paths. Also check archives, this
occurs each few weeks ;)
All I think is that GUI should keep app working as I was in the
command-line, and it's not happening.
Actually it is happening, very far as possible. Where have you the cwd
when a GUI app is launched via Dock or Finder, though? OTOH, if the app is
launched from CLI, the cwd is set properly (to the cwd of the launching
shell, of course).
It's doing something that my UNIX app thinks it's in the "/" folder, not
where it really is.
that's lie. The application knows where it really is, just the very same
way as a tool knows that. The only problem is that
- Finder or Dock set cwd to root, which is the most meaningful way
possible;
- you are confusing the executable path and cwd.
