Hi, Didier:

Might be but I'm not that convinced, there's another older Samsung tablet in the house with an earlier Android version and go71b behaves likewise.

Ok but what speed do you achieve in your particular setup ? Just for instance, how long does it take to execute this from the command line ?

      DESTROY ALL @ SETTIME 0 @ FOR I=1 TO 1000 @ NEXT I @ TIME

At 1x go71b reports a time of about 10 seconds. What times do you get in your Emu71/DOSBox/Android setup ?

Quote:Yes of course you can copy directly the files from your laptop but generally you use a tablet when/where you don't have your laptop [...]

Not my case, I only use a tablet when I'm on the move and/or when I'm vacationing at a location where there's no Internet connectivity at all so I would never be able to download anything, what is already installed in the tablet are the only apps and files I can use, no downloads at all.

Quote:There may be better text editors than QuickEdit but the only permission it needs is access to the storage which is expected.

Not so. Looking at the details in its Google Store page it says it requests the following permissions:

Photos/multimedia/files

      . Read the contents of your USB storage
      . Modify or delete the contents of your USB storage

Storage

      . Read the contents of your USB storage
      . Modify or delete the contents of your USB storage

Other

      . Receive data from Internet
      . View network connections
      . Full network access
      . Prevent device from sleeping

and I think that a simple notepad-like app to just read or write plain text files doesn't need "Full network access" , "View network connections", etc. I also don't want it to "Receive data from the Internet" or to be able to read, modify and/or delete my photos or multimedia files, that has nothing to do with plain text files and the only thing I want it to do is to allow me to create plain text files and to read plain text files already present in the device, period.

That's all for now, thank you very much for your help with go71b which saved my MoHP-related productivity while vacationing, for sharing your Emu71/Android experiences and for replying so thoroughly to my comments and questions.

Best regards.
