Hello, all!
I have recently built a tool that allows users to more efficiently create and run scripts on boot.
These can be python scripts if you have python installed to your system (No, SL4A won't work. At least, not without some work). Usually though, they are bash or sh scripts.
They can be used to do various things, such as fix permissions every reboot, or things such as record a log of the time of every time you boot up your device, or other cool things.
I am currently looking into getting python packed into a flashable zip (lots of more fun with python scripts like showing a toast notification on boot).
To use bse's scripts executing feature, you must place the script you wish to execute under /system/etc/startup. You don't need to worry about chmodding it, there is an init script that does that already. For reference purposes, I recommend you read the contents of that init script (it's in /system/etc/startup).
To clarify, anyone who wants to build an automated installer for this, distribute some scripts, or distribute any modification to be, you have my full permission as long as you provide a link to this thread.

INSTALLATION
- Just flash the zip file in the recovery of your choice
If you have any questions, feel free to ask. I'm sorry, this was written when I was tired (Not the program, the post)
