Hi ! What's your idea behind ? Run "anything" (I'm thinking about standalone games or such, but you may have some other ideas in mind). I'm holding my approval for now. |

Hi ! I'm according with you about a potential security risk, but it's a fake argument. Actually anyone can do this, you have just to change <command> in any system of your es_system.cfg and change extension to .sh for example... by this way anywone could already put /usr/bin/ as rom path for example and "bash %ROM%" as command. So, my wich is just to clarify this process, by adding a special platform, not handled as game platform. After you could lauch some custom bash/python/php/other scripts, for example to auto download and install themes, launch a coffee by network, ask for a pizza.... so all you could imagine and code in your favorite language :) |

Our es_systems.cfg is in a RO fs that requires login ;) so it's not that trivial to edit it. Concerning themes download etc ... It's better to have it done in a "recalbox way". But i do understand the meaning of this PR. @digitalLumberjack and @rockaddicted also have their word to say :) |

Add sysconfig platform to let user create custom scripts with certain extension in a specified "rom" directory.
