Updated Instafetcher app for Kindle Touch / PW

I've updated the Instafetcher app from seird adding these features:

- support for instapaper subfolder (other then "Read later")
- support for up to 3 different instapaper accounts (or folders), with prebuilt json menu and scripts
- Visual feedback of download status and errors
- If wifi is OFF, the script turn it ON automatically until the download is finished
- Added a button for cleaning the download folder


The code is quite redundant but it's my first bash script :P Enjoy!

The Kindles run Busybox Ash, which has less features and other differences from Bash.

But there is a lot more documentation available for Bash.
A link for your reference bookmarks: http://www.tldp.org/LDP/abs/html/

Your distribution of Linux probably has it installed:
Code:
core2quad ~ $ busybox ash
BusyBox v1.18.4 (Ubuntu 1:1.18.4-2ubuntu2) built-in shell (ash)
Enter 'help' for a list of built-in commands.

~ $ whatever
ash: whatever: not found

~ $ exit
core2quad ~ $
It is unlikely that your distribution will be running the same **version** that the Kindles are, but for other than final testing, a way to develop on your 'larger' machine.
