I had to make that trick also to get smscon_editor working.

btw, Prefix for Commands1 and Commands2 can be different, it seems. It could be seen as a feature, but I'd rather like to have only one prefix and place for it for all commands. Oh well, a very minor thing.
There seems to be space available only for 3 more new commands and then you are out of space. So maybe just one "Commands" with a vertical scroll.

Still I'd recommend to have separate password which MUST start the SMS command or smscon_daemon won't parse SMS any futher. Initially could be "smscon". In this way also few CPU cycles are saved every time SMS comes to the phone, because smscon can check only first word against one string and then either process futher or ignore it.

SMSCON_editor's icon goes to All-folder when Catorize is installed. Is this intentional (more hidden) or should it go to System-folder?
Edit: noticed later it goes to Network-folder.

Great work guys!

Edit:
One feature request: A wget supported URI (for example http-address) which is polled in selectable time periods for SMSCON commands, one per line.
If wget is not installed (not in /usr/bin) then ignore this setting.
(Or write HTTP/HTTPS/FTP support with Python.)

Use case for this:
You have a home web page or http-server where you can store TXT-files. When phone is stolen, you go to the nearest netcafe and put suitable text file to the http-server. If smscon_daemon gets the text file, when it next time polls the URI, it will process it line by line like every line would be a SMS.
Also maybe support for parsing out HTML-tags if one is only able to export html-files to the web page.
