Has anyone played with "Termux" on Android? It is just a Linux bash shell, but it has a (maintained) package manager and API into Android to allow some very interesting things (sending a text from the command line, taking a snapshot, reading the address book). I would really like to run a getty session to my M100/BlueM via Bluetooth, but no getty support...yet. This could be very interesting someday:
