My new Lenovo M8 Android 14 tablet seems to run Termux just fine, so I'd like to spend some idle time learning a programming language - ideally one that doesn't need gigabytes of libraries to work. IDE of choice will be vi. Not trying to run the Evil Empire - just do some basic text handling/parsing and file I/O. I'm from a Perl background :) TIA
However, beware!
If you uninstall or upgrade Termux, all your files will be wiped without warning.
I lost my SimH based VAX 11/780 running VMS 7.2 that way. 8(
It was so cool having a VAX in my pocket.
