It works!
Even with different script names.
Thanks for this great feature, raisjn .
It opens the door to multiple scriptable GUI apps on Kobo.

Another example:

We used netpbm's pnmscale and pnmtopng to help with converting our phone camera jpeg images to rmkit's Harmony drawing app png layers here:
https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sh...62&postcount=8

Now with rmkit's SAS we can do the image conversion in a GUI app instead of runnning the script in a terminal:


# nano -l /mnt/onboard/.adds/rmkit/bin/apps/j2p.sh

#!/bin/ash
# j2p.sh - rmkit SAS script to convert jpeg images to png
