    Default Native ADOM on Android (no dosbox)

    Since 1.2.0 was built for 'Raspbian' Linux (which is ARM EABI like most Android devices out there), it's possible to get working by bundling a few libraries and a wrapper script.

    This is especially nifty on full keyboard phones like the Epic4g. For devices without a keyboard, it's probably incredibly painful without a software keyboard such as 'full keyboard' or 'hacker's keyboard'.

    * Get ConnectBot. If you have it and use it already, take note of the emulation mode and encoding settings below. YMMV on your device/rom.
    * Under settings, set emulation mode to 'screen'. Configure a local connection, change it's settings to have encoding 'us-ascii'

    * Snag this adom_linux_arm-android_runner.zip (adom_linux_arm-android_runner.zip), and the .tar.gz for 'Raspbian Linux' on the official download page. Alternatively, https://epic-cm7-tinfoilhat.googleco...unofficial.zip which has the game bundled with the wrapper (*)
    * Find a directory that's -not- on the sdcard to unzip to. If you don't have root, try /data/local or /data/data/org.connectbot
    * unzip and untar the file(s).
    * Run game
    Code:
    unzip /sdcard/download/adom_android_arm_1.2.0_pre3-unofficial.zip
    tar xvfz adom_android_arm_1.2.0_pre3-unofficial.tar.gz
    -or-
    unzip /sdcard/download/adom_linux_arm-android_runner.zip
    tar xvfz adom_linux_arm-android_runner.tar.gz
    tar xvfz /sdcard/download/adom_linux_arm_1.2.0_pre3.tar.gz
    
    cd adom
    ./run
    Note, this will ONLY work on ARM devices.
