Comments on $cripter for Android

★★★★★ No muss, no fuss. I wanted the ability to cut my soft buttons' backlight off for nighttime web browsing and reading via a quick settings shortcut. $cripter runs the script quick and quiet, with nothing but a small toast informing that the script ran. Unlike a certain other blue-themed quick-script app... Something to note (at least in SlimKat 4.4.4's case): if you add a script shortcut via quick settings, then change the script's properties (e.g. Run as Root or No Output), you need to recreate the shortcut to get the changed properties. I think that this is probably a bug or limitation in Android, rather than $cripter.
★★★★★ seems good, but All scripts run in the root directory! I've put "cd $(dirname $0)" in all mine. In 'settings' there is a place for directory names. If that directory does not exist it will not be created, there is no chooser either. App has to be restarted if you change those directories. If you have files in more than one directory there is no distinction between them. There is no indication that the tick on the right means 'run as root'. Other than that, it's reasonably tidy & small & seems to work as advertised
★★★★★ Commands failed: head On my device is always error -> 'reading contents of /sdcard/... Commands failed: head /sdcard/a.sh' i assume that my device is not have 'head' command and where i can find it?
★★★★★ Works great Very handy to automate various tasks. Simple to use. Working fine on my Samsung Galaxy S4 (running CM).
★★☆☆☆ CAN'T INSTALL i downloaded it nd then tried to install but wen i do i see a message that i have insufficient space but i have 3.5gb of free space (xperia sp)
★★☆☆☆ Broken Doesn't save any scripts I made and the it spamed a erroe box about commands stuff.
★★☆☆☆ Can anyone build decent terminal tool pleeeeese? This simple script won't work :setprop service.adb.tcp.port 5555 stop adbd start adbd 192.168.0.11
★★☆☆☆ doesn't work "can't run script... permission denied". by the way, application has been granted root permissions properly. same script can be run by script manager with no problems.
