This change makes it support default-gejerated .taskrc with tild ~ in path:

    HOME_SED_ESCAPED="$(echo $HOME | sed -e 's/[\/&]/\\&/g')"
    TASKDIR="$(grep data.location $HOME/.taskrc | cut -d '=' -f 2 | sed 's/~/'$HOME_SED_ESCAPED'/')"

@andrey-utkin thanks for the suggestion.
Never noticed that ~/ was not properly expanded. Also learned that it's actually non-trivial to do it.

The newer version now addresses the problem and is a bit more user-friendly.
It now also uses bash explicitly as some of the changes are bash specific.
