Reasonable and sane behavior of
cd. Just get into the habit of always using lower case names for files and directories, that's how our forefathers did it.Yes, but this is the default on many distros, so for once the end user is not to blame
Even worse, many components will ignore the
XDG_DOWNLOAD_DIRvar so even if you manually change it to$HOME/downloads(lower-case) it will often break things.Why not just
cd $XDG_DOWNLOAD_DIRin the first place?That's not an environment variable. It's defined in
${XDG_CONFIG_HOME:-$HOME/.config}/user-dirs.dirs.Though you can use the
xdg-user-dir DOWNLOADcommand to get it automatically.
