[ale] OT: open source apps

[Charles Shapiro]

Hmm.  I wrote an application for Android using Eclipse (
http://tomshiro.org/ADA/ ) back in 2016.  Setting Eclipse up was fairly
hirsute, and the last time I tried to compile it for the most up-to-date
Android versions I found I'd have to almost start over from scratch.  I bet
that creating your own APK from someone else's source would be fairly
involved.
