Howdy,

Notice that the engine file,

#!/bin/sh
PATH="$PATH:/usr/texbin:/usr/local/bin"
pdflatex --shell-escape "$1"
pdflatex --shell-escape "$1"
name=$(basename "$1" .tex)
rm "$name".lme
rm "$name".lmeout
rm lmefrag*

contains --shell-escape which allows programs to be executed from  
within pdflatex.

Good Luck,
