The idea is to have
1) a text file, for instance "myscript.txt" in the notepad text files folder
2) a bash script file, for instance "runmyscript.sh" that copies the "myscript.txt" to any place (or to the same folder) with the new name "myscript.sh" and then executes it.
3) an new entry in the ini file of the kobo launcher to the effect that you can call runmyscript.sh (I guess you can also use kobotweaks.ini here, if you still have a free slot)
Next you would write some commands into the "myscript.txt" file, save it, close notepad, launch "runmyscript.sh" from the kobo launcher.
For those characters you are likely to use in your scripts, but are not accessible via the keyboard (I did not see ">", but maybe it is somewhere there) you could prepare the "myscript.txt" file on your pc and include the needed characters in as comments in order to copy and past in when needed. Another way would be to write some placeholder strings instead fo those characters and replace them by some commands in the "runmyscript.sh".
I know this is not very comforable, but it seems to me an acceptable way of dealing with the operating system for small tasks.
