Already answered the first part http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php...935#post546935

To run a script you just give the exact name of the script. If the script is called foo and it's in /home/user, you would type /home/user/foo

I recommend looking up a guide to basic shell commands in linux. Life with Maemo is so much more fun if you can make use of xterm.
