Scripting Layer for Android (SL4A, formerly known as Android Scripting Environment or ASE) brings scripting languages to Android by allowing you to edit and execute scripts and interactive interpreters directly on the Android device. These scripts have access to many of the APIs available to full-fledged Android applications, but with a greatly simplified interface that makes it easy to get things done.
Scripts can be run interactively in a terminal, in the background, or via Locale. Python, Perl, JRuby, Lua, BeanShell, JavaScript, Tcl, and shell are currently supported.
SL4A is designed for developers and is alpha quality software.
What's New in This Release:
Features:
· Added Bluetooth binary read and write using base64.
Bug fixes:
· Launching scripts from shortcuts and Locale works again.
