Previously, I've been able to do this for Confluence using this guide:

http://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid=68858

Which adds a shortcut to the main menu that does XBMC.System.Exec("/path/to/application"). I'd like to do the same for Estuary, but the skin seems a bit more complex and I haven't managed to grok the syntax so far.

Is there anyone with the know-how who would be so kind as to give a few pointers?

Ok, it wasn't that hard once I found the correct place. Here's a diff:

This adds a shortcut "Emulators" below the weather item that launches the script emulators.sh when pressed.
