This script is nice, but it doesn't work if you are attempting to launch a game stored on a Steam library folder outside of the home directory default library.
It also does not use best practices with regards to variable expansion.
To deal with this, I took the liberty of forking the script. For anyone interested in launching games on external Steam libraries (or just a more robust script in general), check it out here:
