Typed name of a program when in the parent directory. Did I open a can of worms?

  • 772

I am on Ubuntu 18.04

When I was in the parent directory in terminal, I typed the name of a program, Brave (it's a web browser).

The terminal "responded" with a lot of output, and I am unsure of what to make of it all.
I was really just goofing around and didn't think it would do anything. But, it did respond with a bunch of output and then open a browser window. Is there anything in that output that I should do something about?
I pasted below what it said.

Gtk-Message: Failed to load module "canberra-gtk-module"

    It's common for programs to print stuff to the console like this. If there's a problem with the program you might find a clue here. If you launch the program from the launcher (click on it) you just don't see the output so you're blissfully unaware of it.

    If the program is working properly and you're not trying to debug it, just ignore it. You haven't done any harm.
