Hi Alex,
I'm very excited about your announcement, so I tried it out immediately :-)
Installation via Google Play worked without problems after searching for
de.software_lab.pilbox
Pilbox starts as documented in the wiki and repl eval works for e.g.
'(version)' and '$ pwd'
Unfortunately I had no luck so far to 'pass the zip to the Pilbox
kernel' - tried it out with the provided hello.zip and calc.zip.
In the wiki there is written
===X====
When the PilBox kernel starts, it scans all top-level directories for
other files named "App.l".
==X===
What is ment by 'all top-level directories'?
Where do I have to place the zip files?
I tried the termux-share example and tried a download via Fireforx in
default Downloads directory, but without success.
Pilbox kernel does start up with the empty list.
I think it is a problem with file sharing permissons on my tablet - will
look into that later, after work - , but if I would only have to put the
files on a special folder or sth linke that, any hint is welcome :-)
Thanks a lot for sharing this,
Olaf

Hi all,
finally, an official version of PilBox is out - and a Wiki article:
https://picolisp.com/wiki/?PilBox
PilBox ("PicoLisp Box") is a generic Android App which allows to write Apps in
pure PicoLisp, without touching Java, and without the need of an Android SDK.
You can get the App (the "PilBox kernel") in Google Play store:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=de.software_lab.pilbox
or - if you prefer - download it directly from:
https://software-lab.de/pilBox.apk
Example Apps are:
https://software-lab.de/hello.zip
https://software-lab.de/calc.zip
https://software-lab.de/demo.zip
If you want to modify the kernel, the sources and build instructions in a README
are at:
https://software-lab.de/PilBox.tgz
I hope it is useful!
♪♫ Alex
