Hi, I've got a proposal for JAndroid:
Since Android 11 (I'm on 12 since I've gotten a new phone), my favorite
setup broke (calling jconsole via Termux, editing files in vim), because
Android does not allow access anymore to the Android/data/ folder, where J
keeps its stuff.

Would it be possible to make JAndroid accept shares of .ijs files, offering
to either save them in e.g. ~temp or directly load them? This would
overcome a lot of hassle for android users trying to have a decent editor.
Also, a better text editor in JAndroid would be highly appreciated
(especially the lack of line wrapping and normal side-scrolling behaviour
is annoying), but I appreciate that would involve quite a bit of work to do…

I think JAndroid's impact shouldn't be underestimated (certainly not if it
would ever make its way to an app-store); it's extremely cool to be able to
do all this highlevel stuff (e.g. viewmat, plot, all J built-in's, parallel
processing (now in beta)) on a phone!

What IME_ACTION does the terminal have? My favorite keyboard (messagEase)
seems to interpret it as "Done", causing it to close whenever pressing
enter. Strangely enough this only happens with MessagEase, so I suspect
it's a bug there. This is very annoying, and if the IME_ACTION of the
JAndroid terminal is not done, I can file a bugreport for the keyboard. In
case the IME_ACTION of the JAndroid terminal is "done", could this by any
chance be changed by something else, that does not tell the keyboard to
close?

Thanks,

Jan-Pieter
