What happened?

The issue is that PCSX2 shell script within ~/Emulation/tools/launchers/ does not parse launch arguments correctly. Normally, I boot PCSX2 from Steam, so I inserted -bigpicture flag in Steam Launch Options after it was removed from the default configuration of the shell file. However, no matter which flag I insert, the app doesn't boot at all. Directly starting the shell file with ./pcsx2-qt.sh -bigpicture did not help either.

Then I inserted echo "$param" right after param=$(echo "$param" | sed 's/.$/"/'). You can see the output below.

As you can see, current parsing algorithm substitutes the last character with " even though it's supposed to substitute only single quotes.

I have already written a fix for it, which I will upload as a pull request and tie it to this issue shortly.

Is this why PCSX2 crashes when trying to run from ES-DE? I'm only able to run it as a standalone app.

Closing as the fix is already in dev branch.
