Hello all, I've just jumped into this whole jailbreaking thing with an old Kindle 3 and been successful at getting things functional, but I'm having trouble setting up some ease of use shortcuts. Specifically, I'm looking to add a shortcut to KUAL that will launch a new session of myts and run a script inside that session that will ssh to a computer connected over usbnetworking.

I can start a myts shell and run the script from there successfully but I can't figure out how to launch the shell from KUAL and have it run the script automatically. So far I've tried calling my script from the KUAL menu entry, creating a custom version of the /mnt/us/myts/myts.sh launch script, and editing the shebang at the top of my script to use myts with no luck. What is the best way to accomplish this?
