Angel,

I was just thinking about this yesterday. As I recall the biggest problem is
that Android doesn't have Swing, a class of Java that we use for the pop-up
menu and the console and also for the PROMPT command and asking for saving
files using the signed applet.

I just modified Jmol to make it gracefully continue if Swing classes are not
found, so it is possible that the latest release of Jmol will actually run
on Android. I don't know. Maybe you have to compile it specially for that.
But if I did it right (unlikely), then it will just be that you cannot
access the pop-up menu or console or PROMT command.

Worth a try at http://chemapps.stolaf.edu/jmol/docs/examples-12/new.htm
