Problem description

Following the steps listed in README.md to setup the /data/data/com.termux/files/home/.shortcuts/icons directory results in the user being unable to copy icon files into the directory.

Steps to reproduce

1. Create the icons directory and set permissions using the sample commands from README.md:

mkdir -p /data/data/com.termux/files/home/.shortcuts/icons
chmod 600 -R /data/data/com.termux/files/home/.shortcuts/icons

2. Copy an icon file into the new directory:

cp ~/sample.png /data/data/com.termux/files/home/.shortcuts/icons/

This yields an error:

cp: cannot stat '/data/data/com.termux/files/home/.shortcuts/icons/chrome.png': Permission denied

Expected behavior

The icon file should be copied into the directory.

Additional information

The directory should be set with 0700 permissions instead of 0600.
