I did it using a webclip in a profile (despite the fact that <a href="http://developer.apple.com/library/ios/featuredarticles/iPhoneConfigurationProfileRef/iPhoneConfigurationProfileRef.pdf">the documentation</a> says the URL needs to start with http or https).

Here is the python script I used to install everything (I have a directory 'scripts' that contains all python stuff):

<pre>
import urllib
import tarfile
from zipfile import ZipFile
import shutil
import console
import os
import editor
from os.path import expanduser

os.chdir(expanduser('~/Documents/'))

url = 'http://www.reportlab.com/ftp/reportlab-2.7.tar.gz'
fname='reportlab-2.7'
sname='src/reportlab'
dname='scripts/reportlab'
print 'Downloading '+dname+'...'
urllib.urlretrieve(url, fname+'.tar.gz')

print 'Extracting...'
t = tarfile.open(fname+'.tar.gz')
t.extractall()

if os.path.isdir(dname):
shutil.rmtree(dname)
shutil.move(fname+'/'+sname, dname)

print 'Cleaning up...'
shutil.rmtree(fname)
os.remove(fname+'.tar.gz')

url='http://pybrary.net/pyPdf/pyPdf-1.13.tar.gz'
fname='pyPdf-1.13'
sname='pyPdf'
dname='scripts/pyPdf'
print 'Downloading '+dname+'...'
urllib.urlretrieve(url, fname+'.tar.gz')

print 'Extracting...'
t = tarfile.open(fname+'.tar.gz')
t.extractall()

if os.path.isdir(dname):
shutil.rmtree(dname)
shutil.move(fname+'/'+sname, dname)

print 'Cleaning up...'
shutil.rmtree(fname)
os.remove(fname+'.tar.gz')

url = 'https://github.com/html5lib/html5lib-python/archive/master.zip'
fname='html5lib-python-master'
sname='html5lib'
dname='scripts/html5lib'
print 'Downloading '+dname+'...'
urllib.urlretrieve(url, fname+'.zip')

print 'Extracting...'
with ZipFile(fname+'.zip', 'r') as z:
z.extractall()

if os.path.isdir(dname):
shutil.rmtree(dname)
shutil.move(fname+'/'+sname, dname)

print 'Cleaning up...'
shutil.rmtree(fname)
os.remove(fname+'.zip')

url='https://github.com/chrisglass/xhtml2pdf/archive/master.zip'
fname='xhtml2pdf-master'
sname='xhtml2pdf'
dname='scripts/xhtml2pdf'
print 'Downloading '+dname+'...'
urllib.urlretrieve(url, fname+'.zip')

print 'Extracting...'
with ZipFile(fname+'.zip', 'r') as z:
z.extractall()

if os.path.isdir(dname):
shutil.rmtree(dname)
shutil.move(fname+'/'+sname, dname)

print 'Cleaning up...'
shutil.rmtree(fname)
os.remove(fname+'.zip')

url='http://www.reportlab.com/ftp/pfbfer-20070710.zip'
fname='scripts/xhtml2pdf/fonts/pfbfer-20070710'
sname='pfbfer-20070710'
dname='scripts/xhtml2pdf/fonts'
if os.path.isdir(dname):
shutil.rmtree(dname)
os.mkdir(dname)
print 'Downloading '+sname+'...'
urllib.urlretrieve(url, fname+'.zip')

print 'Extracting...'
dr=os.getcwd()
os.chdir(dname)
with ZipFile(sname+'.zip', 'r') as z:
z.extractall()
os.chdir(dr)

print 'Cleaning up...'
os.remove(fname+'.zip')

editor.reload_files()
print 'Done'

</pre>

Then the workflow contains a 'Document Text' step, followed by a 'Convert Markdown to HTML' step, followed by the following 'Run Python Script' step:
<pre>
#coding: utf-8
import sys
from os.path import expanduser
if not(expanduser('~/Documents/scripts') in sys.path):
sys.path.append(expanduser('~/Documents/scripts'))
import workflow
import os.path
import editor
import xhtml2pdf.pisa as pisa
import StringIO
from urllib import unquote

pisa.showLogging()

def link_callback(uri,rel):
if not(uri.startswith('/')):
return dir+'/'+unquote(uri)
return unquote(uri)

action_in = workflow.get_input()
pre='<html>\n<head>\n<meta charset="utf-8"/>\n<style>\n p {font-size:12pt}\n</style>\n</head>\n\n<body>\n'
post='\n</body>\n</html>'
inp=StringIO.StringIO(pre+action_in.encode('ascii', 'xmlcharrefreplace')+post)
p = editor.get_path()
dir = os.path.split(p)[0]
f = os.path.split(p)[1]
fn= os.path.splitext(f)[0]
fl = file(dir+'/'+fn+".pdf", "w+b")
print('processing '+p)
pdf = pisa.CreatePDF(inp,fl,dir,link_callback=link_callback)
fl.close()
if pdf.err!=0:
print(pdf.err)
else:
print('done!')
</pre>

I installed xhtml2pdf (together with reportlab-2.7, pyPdf-1.13, html5lib) in Editorial.

Does anyone know if there is a way to detect when a running program (scene) is in the background (e.g. Because the user has pressed the home button)? I tried it with notifications (since I thought it reacts differently when the program scheduling a notification is in the background), but unfortunately all I managed was to crash Pythonista :-(

hvmhvm

In the end, using the pause, and using notification('',0,'','pythonista://test?action=run') it 'works' because that crashes the app in the background (but that is not the right way to do it)...

hvmhvm

Nice suggestion! Unfortunately what I'm trying to do is quit the scene when the user presses the home button, but putting a sys.exit() in there doesn't stop the scene. I also tried to use a delay(0,lambda: sys.exit()), but then the scene ends after relaunching Pythonista. Since what I really want to do is allow for the launch of another program using the pythonista:// custom url, I get the error message 'Already running script' :-(

I created my own keyboard (using screenshots of the real thing)...
