Search preformed twice when --start is specified in terminal.

When --start is specified in the terminal, it searches twice.

  --start               If path and query are provided, start searching when
                        the application is displayed.

Catfish automatically starts a search when a path and query are provided in the terminal, so putting --start in the terminal results in search happening twice, one after the other.
