Certainly almost all android phone/tabel contain enough internal ram making sdcard optional. I guess it is easy to access ~user folder under JHS. However I use jconsole not jhs, os I need to browse and open and edits files using terminal or file managers. If it can ship a profilex.ijs with r/w permission and dummy content such as,
NB. profilex.ijs NB. user=. '/sdcard/data/j' NB. break=. user,'/break' NB. snap=. user,'/snap' NB. temp=. user,'/temp' NB. config=. user,'/config' Then one can uncomment lines to make ~user and ~temp more easily accessible. creating profilex.ijs from its template is possible but involves many steps and a superuser account.
