[platypus-dev] Question about TERM environment variable

Hi there!

Just discovered your nice app Platypus. Nice work, thanks for it!
I tried it with one bash shell script that i recently wrote to automate some things in our workflow. Works fine. But there is one small flaw: 

if I run my app I always get the following message in the text window:

TERM environment variable not set.
If I define a TERM variable in the 'edit environment' dialog with one of the parameters I know (xterm, xterm-color, ansi, vt100, ...) I always get strange text in the text window. The start of my script output for example then looks like this: 

Counting files ...

but should only be: Counting files ...
Any ideas, how to get rid of this "missing variable" message and get my normal output like I get in a normal terminal window?
BTW: I'm using 'bash' as the interpreter for this script, if this is important. 

Thanks for your help,

Abraham
