[GTALUG] BASH on Android OS

[William Porquet]

Termux on my Android laptop/tablet is pretty much identical to having a
Debian shell environment. The only hackable hitch is that the binary paths
are not standard. But there's a termux-fix-shebang script you can apply to
your scripts to fix that.

Happy hacking!
