OK, having gone through the wifi.sh awk-driven script it really isn't feasible to amend it to support hidden networks without a lot of extra work. In fact the TinyCore developer who created the script has expressly said that it doesn't support hidden networks and he doesn't intend developing the script to support them. So I'll probably create my own custom script that a) allow a wifi.db file to be created with an extra "hidden" parameter, and b) will create an appropriate wpa_supplicant,conf file on boot-up from the wifi.db file and then start up the network. Not being an expert scripter these are likely to be very basic!
