emacs + slime + ecl on Android?

[jarausch]

Hi,

I have an ECL binary on my Android phone and I have seen there is Emacs in Google play. Is it possible to have SLIME as well on Android?

Many thanks for a hint,
Helmut

Just install quicklisp and use it to install slime.
There shouldn't be any difficulty.

But do you have an Android phone (device/system version) able to run
that Emacs in Google play?  It cannot run either on Samsung S4 with
Android 4.3 nor on Samsung A5 with Android 4.4.

Unfortunately, you're right - I should have tested it earlier.
Here, too, emacs crashes on my rooted Galaxy S3 mini (running CARBON).

The only way to run Lisp at the moment is DroidEdit which can run a file through an external binary. 
I have installed ecl from
https://github.com/YasuakiHonda/ECL-Precompiled-Binaries

DroidEdit shows the output of a running Lisp program but cannot take interactive input.
I'm still looking for an alternate possibility,
Helmut

Let's see, the supposed future of computing, and
reigning paleo-opium of the bio-masses, turns out, it
cannot even run Lisp!

Lisp, specified in 1958. Only Fortran (1956) is older
and still in use.

Yes, you can't believe how advanced lisp is.  It will still be used in a
hundred years, or in a thousand years.  Just like Pythagore's theorem.

If history can teach us anything, is that lisp is still used, while more
recent fads are already eclipsed by even more recent fads.

Does history provide an answer as to how to get people
to use Lisp - instead of even the most recent fads -
as well?

Writing must-have applications with lisp as a scripting language seems
to work (cf. emacs, autocad).  In this case, mind using a full-fleshed
industrial-grade lisp, such as Common Lisp, to ensure perenity.

Another thing would be to provide interfaces to modern ie. modish
interfaces and frameworks.  This can often easily be provided with
libraries.
