Well,I tried it, but I had no luck.
As a completely programming ignorant, I could not find a way to move the info from the top. I could move all the others anywhere, but when I moved the info somewhere else, everything before that position disappeared.
Photoshop was easier ...

The light mod went even worst.
When I made it, I couldn't boot to the menu (or Nickel) at all.
I must mistyped something somewhere ...

I did not try any of this my self. So be warned. Be also aware that a mistake in the rcS file might force you to do a factory reset. I would at least make a syntax check (sh -n rcS) before installing it.
As I said, my programming skills are zero, so my security is the brute force of restoring the whole SD card image.
Since I haven't decided about the exact configuration of my Glo (I mostly use Android, but I play also a bit with Nickel), I keep the back of it open.

Anyway, thanks for the info ...
