Hello Bartosz, Thanks for the reply. I did work out a simple patch to get what I needed. It's attached in case it's of any use.

If not, can I submit a patch to include a parameter for executing a script? Hi Kevin, I didn't see this message because you didn't Cc me personally.

Executing scripts is on my TODO list, but your contribution will be more than welcome. :) Best regards, Bartosz Golaszewski
