Haxe development on Android tablet

This guide will show you how you can potentially use your Android device to write code and test it.

Basically you need two things:
GnuRoot Debian and Geany code editor.

Prerequisites: Android tablet with hardware keyboard and bluetooth mouse or at less Hacker’s Keyboard installed.

1. Install GnuRoot Debian from Google Play Store.


2. Then push “XTerm” button. It will start X Windows system.



To connect with X Windows I prefer RealVnc Viewer. It's a much better and support full screen.
Host: 127.0.0.1:5951
Password: gnuroot

3. Let's adjust our mini Linux

# apt-get update && apt-get upgrade

... some common tools
# apt-get install apt-utils dialog nano wget links2 p7zip-full net-tools
# apt-get install dropbear
# apt-get install build-essential
# apt-get install git

... change "tondy" with your username
# adduser tondy

4. Build Haxe from source
# cd /tmp
# git clone --recursive https://github.com/HaxeFoundation/haxe.git
# apt-get install neko ocaml libpcre3 libpcre3-dev zlib1g zlib1g-dev
# cd haxe
# make && make install
# su tondy
$ cd
$ haxelib setup

5. Haxe has a lot of targets: Javascript, php, C++, AS3, python, C#,  lua etc ...
# apt-get install nodejs npm

6. You don't need full desktop like Xfce but only Geany code editor ...
# apt-get install geany geany-plugins
# apt-get install dillo


... and Dillo web browser



Note: The path to this chroot-ed Debian Linux home folder is
/storage/emulated/0/GNURoot/home/

That's it!

Welcome to the future and happy haxing :)

The Moon and Sixpence

"Beauty is something wonderful and strange that the artist fashions out of the chaos of the world in the torment of his soul. And when he has made it, it is not given to all to know it. To recognize it you must repeat the adventure of the artist. It is a melody that he sings to you, and to hear it again in your own heart you want knowledge and sensitiveness and imagination.”
 W. Somerset Maugham, The Moon and Sixpence

Employee Christmas Party MEMO

Christmas Party

December 1...To All Employees

I'm happy to inform you that the company Christmas Party will be held on December 23rd at Luigi's Open Pit Barbecue. There will be lots of spiked eggnog and a small band will play traditional carols...feel free to sing-along. And don't be surprised if our CEO shows up dressed as Santa Claus to light the Christmas tree.
Exchanging gifts among employees can be done at this time. Please remember to keep gifts to the agreed $10 limit.

Merry Christmas to you and yours,
Patty Lewis, Human Resources Director
---------------------------------------------------

December 2...To All Employees

In no way was yesterday's memo intended to exclude our Jewish employees. We recognize that Hanukkah is an important holiday and often coincides with Christmas (although not this year). However, from now on we're calling this party our Holiday Party. The same policy also applies to employees who are celebrating Kwanzaa at this time. There will be no tree or Christmas carols sung.

Happy holidays to you and yours.
Patty Lewis, Human Resources Director
------------------------------------------------------------------------

December 3...To All Employees

Regarding the anonymous note I received from a member of Alcoholics Anonymous requesting a non-drinking table, I'm happy to accommodate your request but please remember that if I put a sign on the table that reads "AA Only" you won't be anonymous any more.
In addition, we'll no longer be having a gift exchange because union members feel that $10 is too much money.

Patti Lewis, Human Resources Director
------------------------------------------------------------------------

December 7...To All Employees

I have arranged for members of Overeaters Anonymous to sit farthest away from the dessert table and for pregnant members to sit closest to the restrooms. Gays are allowed to sit with each other. Lesbians do not have to sit with gays; each group will have its own table. And, yes, there will be a flower arrangement for the gay men's table.
Happy now?

Patty Lewis, Human Resources Director
------------------------------------------------------------------------

December 9...To All Employees

People! People! Nothing sinister was intended by wanting our CEO to play Santa Claus. Even if the anagram for "Santa" does happen to be "Satan." There is no evil connation to our own little "man in a red suit."

Patti Lewis, Human Resources Director
------------------------------------------------------------------------

December 10...To All Employees

Vegetarians! I've had it with you people. We're holding this party at Luigi's Open Pit Barbecue whether you like it or not. You can just sit at the table farthest from the "Grill of Death" as you call it, and you'll get salad bar only including hydroponics tomatoes. Tomatoes have feelings too, you know. They scream when you slice them. I can hear them now. I hope you have a rotten holiday. Drive drunk and die, you hear me?

The Bitch from Hell
------------------------------------------------------------------------

December 14...To All Employees

I'm sure I speak for all of us in wishing Patty Lewis a speedy recovery from her stress-related illness. I'll continue to forward your cards to her at the sanitarium. In the meantime management has decided to cancel the Holiday Party and give everyone the afternoon of the 23rd off with full pay.

Terri Bishop, Acting Human Resources Director
