Even though I know no lua, and the suggested thread missed out a vital 2nd file (the metalua), looking at the code there, plus a couple of applets already installed, and a surprise find in an ancient WOLapplet for squeezeplay (from http://wiki.slimdevices.com/index.php/SqueezePlay_Applets) I managed to cobble together a menu item that sends a WOL to my server. It's just a one-line menu item in the extras menu. It needs some tidying up, and some form of user acknowledgement that it's done something, but it does work.
I chose not to try and redevelop the squeezeplay one, which is much more sophisticated, allowing configuration of one or more music server MACs. I suspect there are critical differences between squeezeplay and the touch. My very short and simple one just executes the ether-wake host command I mentioned in the 1st post. That required me to log onto the Touch (once assuming I don't need a full reset) and create an entry /etc/ethers for my server. If I change server I just need to change that rather than the applet. I have a simple apache web server (on my music server), about which I know very little, but just enough to place an applet repo xml file into /var/www/html/touch , along with a zip of the applet. I then added repo http://ip-address/touch to my plugins directory on the server, and on the touch installed the applet. If anyone else wants something like this (to execute any terminal command line that will run on the touch - see https://www.busybox.net/screenshot.html) I'm happy to share more information.
