Succesfully run emacs on my foldable phone

[frank]

I tried a lot,
the experience is extremly good,
it exactly feels like I am using emacs on laptop.

step1: install termux on your phone

Releases · termux/termux-app

step2: install emacs in the os (termux-app)
pkg add emacs git vim cmake ripgrep aterm aspell automake curl libtool imagemagick netcat-openbsd
step3: how to open url through your firefox app
M-x open-url-at-point-with-script-on-android

(defun open-url-at-point-with-script-on-android ()
  (interactive)
  (let ((url (thing-at-point 'url t)))
    (if url
        (shell-command (format "~/open_url_on_android.sh '%s'" url))
      (message "No URL at point"))))

#+begin_src shell :tangle "~/open_url_on_android.sh"  :tangle-mode (identity #o755)
# url must contain "https://", for example https://google.com
am start -n org.mozilla.firefox/org.mozilla.gecko.BrowserApp $1
#+end_src

Termux is really nice. There’s also a full graphical Emacs build (official!) on F-Droid:

Emacs | F-Droid - Free and Open Source Android App Repository

Your setup looks cool!

This source forge repo has custom build Emacs and termux so that you can use termux tools inside the emacs, also i am able install third party packages like which key, doom mode line

Interesting, is this to enable the Android build of Emacs to have access to the common GNU command utilities?

[GoldAyan]

I can access sed , ps and rg (which installed in termux)

I tested custom build Emacs on source forge, it can support display inline image
I can show people how cool it is.
My experience is: it is not perfect compared to running in terminal.
