Re: Android Demo
Hi Thorsten, Thanks for asking. I haven't done any work on the topic since I last posted about it. I haven't built any real apps using PicoLisp on Android. On the other hand, I haven't built any real apps for Android using any technology, so it's more a matter of not having a need vs it being the wrong choice. For those who are curious, here is the last wiki article about it: http://picolisp.com/5000/!wiki?AndroidWebServer I'd be interested in hearing if anyone has a need or has created a PicoLisp app on Android Joe On Tue, Oct 9, 2012 at 1:06 PM, Thorsten Jolitz tjol...@googlemail.com wrote: Doug Snead semaphore_2...@yahoo.com writes: Hi Joe and Doug, I read up your conversations about PicoLisp on Android in the mailing list and your articles in the Wiki about the topic: Ok, so now this means we can package some picolisp client/server applications as android apps, using the android browser.

Joe Bogner joebog...@gmail.com writes: Hi Joe, I'd be interested in hearing if anyone has a need or has created a PicoLisp app on Android I just figured out recently that there are actually companies making money (and hiring software-developers) developing Apps for Android phones and similar devices for their paying clients. Maybe this could be a path for PicoLisp to become more commercial? If (and only if ;) its easy to develop and run PicoLisp apps on Android, and development is equally or more efficient with PicoLisp than with Java, people (= hiring companies and their end-users, or paying clients) might not care about the underlying technology?

Re: Android Demo
I'll have to review my notes and see where I was on that. After some initial successes compiling, after testing more, I remember some snags in either mini picolisp or full picolisp involving some ARM vs x86 differences. --- On Tue, 10/9/12, Thorsten Jolitz tjol...@googlemail.com wrote: From: Thorsten Jolitz tjol...@googlemail.com Subject: Re: Android Demo To: picolisp@software-lab.de Date: Tuesday, October 9, 2012, 10:06 AM Doug Snead semaphore_2...@yahoo.com writes: Hi Joe and Doug, I read up your conversations about PicoLisp on Android in the mailing list and your articles in the Wiki about the topic: Ok, so now this means we can package some picolisp client/server applications as android apps, using the android browser.
