😢 Don't waste an entire afternoon trying to figure out why your project has lots of .js files and your gulpfile.js keeps getting deleted.

Resolves #14...

This is a very unusual case, I don't think it should have a dedicated warning (waiting for the opinion of other people to decide what to do)

Maybe have the gulpfile detect if it's being run from the steam directory?

Yeah good idea, it's quite easy to do

I agree with @valerian on this, this doesn't see the need of a dedicated warning, since a case where people would run this script from the Steam directory would be very minimal.

A better mitigation strategy would be to have the gulpfile detect the Steam directory and prevent the tasks from running (as per @Dessix).

I will be closing this and create an issue thread for it right now.
