Question: Is there any problem to use AddRemoveReaScript (add = true ) to get the command ID of a script, that is already present in the Action List, by its path?

    Not a problem exactly but also it's pretty inefficient, does a lot of extra work. If you can do a sha1 you can calculate the command ID string using that...

    Thanks! But what exactly do I have to pass to the sha1 function? No matter what I've tried I didn't get the same hash as the command ID. Could you give an example with the cockos theme adjuster? (Default_6.0_theme_adjuster.lua) Thanks!

    Take the relative path, e.g. Cockos/Default_6.0_theme_adjuster.lua (or full path if not in the reascript/ dir), convert to uppercase, convert any backslashes to /, take the SHA1 of that (not including the nul character at the end), then "RS" or "RS%x_" (sectionID) prefix, and %02x for each of the 20 bytes of the SHA1
