I've uploaded the binaries and source code to my website: http://www3.telus.net/rkomar/sh_ivtool/. An example shell script that uses it can be seen at: http://www3.telus.net/rkomar/edit-epub/. This should make it easier to use non-trivial scripts in the Applications tab.
I cannot get the epub-edit.app to run (with the "open with" command): on the 360 I get a "cannot start program", whereas on the 903 I get the hourglass for a second or less, then nothing happens. I am pretty sure I have followed your instructions to the letter (copied zip, unzip, edit-epub.app and sh_ivtool.app to the system/bin directory, and pi.app to the applications directory, edited the config file appropriately, using the "arm-linux" versions of your apps for the 360 and the "arm-none-linux-gnueabi" for the pro).

Any suggestions on what I might be doing wrong? I did download sh_ivtool and edit-epub after your first correction (though not last night versions). On the pro I have the 2.1.2 firmware, on the 360 I think it is 15.3 (more than a year old). Thanks!
