TERMINAL ON ANDROID- TERMUX


Let Termux be our topic today. It is an Android application which is a Terminal Emulator distributed by Fredrik Fornwall. It creates exactly the same working environment of Linux Terminal on Android. Take a try.
It can be installed from Google Play Store. Navigate from here.

After the environment is set, go to App settings from the System Settings and give the App Storage permission. 

Basic linux command like cd, ls, pwd, cat, touch and many more or almost all can be made here on this prompt.

To install packages like Python or Pip type in
packages install <packageName>
It's that simple.  Similarly, to execute a program or a package, type <packageName> then, the corresponding help will be appear. Rest is with you.

This is how an installation screen appears to be..
Now, about storage. As the initial step, type in
termux-setup-storage

Typing pwd gives the current working directory and it will be something like /data/data/com.termux/files/home. To change it to the Internal storage or sdCard of your device, you can use: cd /storage/emulated/0

Thats all. The environment is now ready for testing. This is a very useful and appreciable application for it helps a lot in web automations and so on using Python without a desktop/laptop computer turned on 24*7 because a phone, stating personally, is always on and networked.
You can refer to "VIEWING OR ACCESSING A WEBSITE USING TERMINAL" in my next blog.

I'M IMPRESSED

​"Ready?", he asked with a challenging smile. We were sitting facing my PC fingures on game control keys. He was always intrested in gaming. "Sure.", me too. He was back home after a long time. He is still the same and what I cannot be completely certain is only about her. Her name always distracted him. Misappropriated his pen, was puzzled with his phone, random knocked the table, his iris swept angles, he was sharp to spoken words and listened too, not once. I cannot call it a distraction to the full context, but it was some kind of psychological anxiety and stimuli which he was not able to hide completely, even after  his dedicated trials, which I came to know for he is a good friend of mine.  "You are my inspiration", those were some words forming a beautiful sentence, which I saw while he typed on his hand-set (I was good at guessing the keystrokes even looking from the back). I thought about it, a person who he never told me about turned to an ins...
