Is there some simple shell scripting support in Maemo5? I know python is supported but not sure about its capabilities. I'm looking for something like the applescript in Mac which can easily communicate with installed applications.

e.g. Is it possible to write a simple script which will open up the SMS app, select a hard-coded contact and fill the body with a template and even send the message if needed. Meaning I can send a pre-set SMS with just a single tap

what will be the best way to achieve this?

Thanks,
