newRPL for Android - early release for testers
newRPL is now available on Android!

The latest release can be downloaded from here:

newRPL for Android APK package

Download this from a browser on your mobile device, then you might be prompted to allow installation of apps from unknown sources. You'll have to enable it temporarily to install newRPL, then you can disable it again.
Rest assured, newRPL contains no malware, no ads, no nagging messages. The only permissions it requires is to access files on your SD card, this is needed to let you save sessions and backup objects from the stack.

To open the main menu, touch near the top of the simulated screen. The functionality is exactly the same as newRPL Desktop, with some quirks:

* Copy/paste objects into the clipboard doesn't seem to retain the native newRPL format, all objects are pasted as text.
* USB functionality hasn't been tested even though it's enabled. I haven't researched how to do it yet, but it might require some special permissions (which can likely be granted only as root).
* Closing the app from the task switcher doesn't give newRPL a chance to save its state. Closing it by using the "Back" key or "Exit" from the menu does save the state properly.

As usual, test and report back.
