> Much though I'd like to be able to run Emacs on my Android phone,
> I'm having difficulty imagining how input could possibly work.
> Emacs is heavily dependent on "chord" keystrokes. It's hard
> enough to type anything at all on the standard Android virtual
> keyboard, and that doesn't have ALT, CTRL, or SHIFT modifier keys.
> Would an Android Emacs include its own virtual keyboard?
> And even if it did, how do you type a chord on a touchscreen with
> keys that small?
