Changelog ### Added - Allow users to directly open URL links in terminal transcript when clicked or tapped. The user can add `terminal-onclick-url-open=true` entry to `termux.properties` file to enable opening of URL links in terminal transcript when clicked or tapped. The default value is `false`. Running `termux-reload-settings` command will also update the behaviour instantaneously if changed. Implemented by @trygveaa in [#2146](https://github.com/termux/termux-app/pull/2146). ([`af16e79b`](https://github.com/termux/termux-app/commit/af16e79b), [`1a5a66d0`](https://github.com/termux/termux-app/commit/1a5a66d0)) - Allow users to disable auto capitalization of extra keys text. The user can add `extra-keys-text-all-caps=false` entry to `termux.properties` file to disable auto capitalization of extra keys text for both normal and popup buttons. The default value is `true`. Running `termux-reload-settings` command will also update the behaviour instantaneously if changed. ([`5c72c3ca`](https://github.com/termux/termux-app/commit/5c72c3ca)) - Allow users to adjust terminal horizontal and vertical margin. The `terminal-margin-horizontal` key can be used to adjust the terminal left/right margin and the `terminal-margin-vertical` can be used to adjust the terminal top/bottom margin. This will also affect drawer. The user can set an integer value between `0` and `100` as `dp` units. The default value is still `3` for horizontal and `0` for vertical margin. So adding an entry like `terminal-margin-horizontal=10` to `termux.properties` file will allow users to set a horizontal margin of `10dp`. After updating the value, either restart termux or run `termux-reload-settings` for changes to take effect. This was added since for some users text on edges would not be shown on the screen or they had screen protectors/cases that covered screen edges (Of course, that would require fixing every single app and android system UI itself, so kinda stupid to use). Moreover, horizontal margin of like `10dp` may be helpful with peek-and-slide for people having gesture navigation enabled on android `10+` since they won't be to touch at exactly the edge of the screen to trigger peek (#1325). Closes [#2210](https://github.com/termux/termux-app/issues/2210) ([`63504f0a`](https://github.com/termux/termux-app/commit/63504f0a)) - Allow users to disable hardware keyboard shortcuts. The user can add `disable-hardware-keyboard-shortcuts=true` entry to `termux.properties` file to disable hardware keyboard shortcuts. The default value is `false`. Running `termux-reload-settings` command will also update the behaviour instantaneously if changed. Note that for `ctrl+alt+p` to work, you need to unset `shortcut.rename-session = ctrl + n`. https://wiki.termux.com/wiki/Terminal_Settings. Closes [#1825](https://github.com/termux/termux-app/issues/1825). ([`829cc398`](https://github.com/termux/termux-app/commit/829cc398), [`fcc0d362`](https://github.com/termux/termux-app/commit/fcc0d362)) - Request `android.permission.PACKAGE_USAGE_STATS` permission. The permission can be granted from `Android Settings` -> `System` -> `Usage Access`. Closes [#2269](https://github.com/termux/termux-app/issues/2269). ([`865f29d4`](https://github.com/termux/termux-app/commit/865f29d4)) - Add `TERMUX_API_VERSION` to termux shell environment. This can be used to check if `Termux:API` is installed and enabled for cases where users try to run `termux-api` commands and it hangs. ([`0cf3cef7`](https://github.com/termux/termux-app/commit/0cf3cef7)) - Add `TERMUX_IS_DEBUGGABLE_BUILD`, `TERMUX_APK_RELEASE` and `TERMUX_APP_PID` to termux shell environment. The `TERMUX_IS_DEBUGGABLE_BUILD` env variable will be set to `1` if termux APK is a debuggable APK and `0` otherwise. Note that the `dev_keystore.jks` shipped with termux app and plugin source code can also be used to create a release APK even though its mainly used for Github Debug Builds, in which case value will be `0`. The `TERMUX_APK_RELEASE` will be set to `GITHUB`, `F_DROID` or `GOOGLE_PLAY_STORE` depending on release type. It will be set to `UNKNOWN` if signed with a custom key. The `TERMUX_APP_PID` will be set to the process of the main app process of the termux app package (`com.termux`), assuming its running when shell is started, like for `termux-float`. This variable is included since `pidof com.termux` does not return anything for release builds. It does work for debug builds and over adb/root. However, you still won't be able to get additional process info with `ps`, like that of threads, even with the pid and will need to use adb/root. However, `kill $TERMUX_APP_PID` will work from `termux-app` and `termux-float`. These variables can be used by termux devs and users for custom logic in future depending on release type. ([`da07826a`](https://github.com/termux/termux-app/commit/da07826a), [`7b10a35f`](https://github.com/termux/termux-app/commit/7b10a35f)) - Add support for `~/.termux/termux.float.properties`. ([`bc779d2f`](https://github.com/termux/termux-app/commit/bc779d2f)) - **!** Convert `extra-keys` to agnosticism by moving them to `termux-shared` library so that they can be imported and used by other apps for their own needs as long as they comply with GPLv3 license. Almost everything is customizable and has no dependency on termux specific logic. ([`2a74d43c`](https://github.com/termux/termux-app/commit/2a74d43c)) - Add support for `SHIFT` or `SHFT` `extra-keys`. Closes [#1038](https://github.com/termux/termux-app/issues/1038). ([`2a74d43c`](https://github.com/termux/termux-app/commit/2a74d43c), [`91172409`](https://github.com/termux/termux-app/commit/91172409)) - Add support for `PASTE` `extra-keys` for pasting text from clipboard. ([`7d76e8b1`](https://github.com/termux/termux-app/commit/7d76e8b1)) - Add support to long hold on `CTRL`, `ALT`, `SHIFT` and `FN` to lock those control keys. They will not be released when you press another key and will only be released by pressing the respective control key again. Closes [#2049](https://github.com/termux/termux-app/issues/2049), Closes [#1861](https://github.com/termux/termux-app/issues/1861). [`2a74d43c`](https://github.com/termux/termux-app/commit/2a74d43c)) - Add support for `com.termux.execute.background_custom_log_level` and `com.termux.RUN_COMMAND_BACKGROUND_CUSTOM_LOG_LEVEL`. Check the commit and https://github.com/termux/termux-tasker#custom-log-level for details. ([`60f37bde`](https://github.com/termux/termux-app/commit/60f37bde), [`e889d84d`](https://github.com/termux/termux-app/commit/e889d84d), [`1259a212`](https://github.com/termux/termux-app/commit/1259a212), [`197979fd`](https://github.com/termux/termux-app/commit/197979fd)) - Add warning that hax support is not provided and asking questions will likely result in issue automatically closed or even ban. ([`6409019a`](https://github.com/termux/termux-app/commit/6409019a)) - Add warning reports with (partial) screenshots of error reports instead of text will likely be automatically closed/deleted. ([`7047bbef`](https://github.com/termux/termux-app/commit/7047bbef)) - Add `termux-api` log level settings in termux app settings. ([`582e5693`](https://github.com/termux/termux-app/commit/582e5693)) - Add `termux-float` log level settings in termux app settings. ([`d55c1001`](https://github.com/termux/termux-app/commit/d55c1001)) - Add `termux-widget` log level settings in termux app settings. ([`4953b126`](https://github.com/termux/termux-app/commit/4953b126)) - Add `isTermuxAppInstalled()` and `isTermuxAppAccessible()` functions to `TermuxUtils`. The `TermuxUtils.isTermuxAppInstalled()` function can be used by external apps to check if termux app is installed and enabled. The `TermuxUtils.isTermuxAppAccessible()` function can be used by termux plugin apps to check if termux app is installed, enabled, accessible as per `sharedUserId` and `TERMUX_PREFIX_DIR_PATH` is accessible and has read, write and execute permission. ([`e5c05489`](https://github.com/termux/termux-app/commit/e5c05489)) - Bootstrap error and report issue (optionally) will contain primary termux files `stat` info and `logcat` dump Users have been reporting issues with bootstrap installation (and `login` file access) failure on email and github but "most" have been useless since they don't follow instructions to debug the issue and report back. The real reason may depend on device. One could be that `/data/data/com.termux` does not exist on the device in which case termux won't work on the device, at least without root. Other reasons could be wrong ownership or selinux context, selinux denials or attempting to install on external sd card (as reported by a user) where likely files dir was different from `/data/data/com.termux/files`. This commit will save dev and possibly user time and automatically generate the required info to debug such issues. The `ls` command will generate `stat` info for all the major termux directories and files so that existence or ownership issues can be shown. It will also run `logcat` command to take a dump (last `3000` lines) in case other failures are being logged, like selinux denials as per `avc` entries. It will also show if app is installed on external sd card. This info will automatically be shown on bootstrap install failure report. Moreover, users can generate termux files `stat` info and `logcat` dump manually too with terminal's long hold options menu `More` -> `Report Issue` option and selecting `YES` in the prompt shown to add debug info. This can be helpful for reporting and debugging other issues. If the report generated is too large, then `Save To File` option in context menu (3 dots on top right) of `ReportActivity` can be used and the file viewed/shared instead. Users must post complete report (optionally without sensitive info) when reporting issues, instead of (partial) screenshots which won't be accepted anymore. There has been some design changes in android 11 for `/data/data` and `/data/user/0` directory. You can check javadoc for `isTermuxFilesDirectoryAccessible()` function in [`TermuxFileUtils`](termux-shared/src/main/java/com/termux/shared/file/TermuxFileUtils.java) for details. ([`24ea83d6`](https://github.com/termux/termux-app/commit/24ea83d6)) - **!** Added support to save reports to files and fixed large reports generating `TransactionTooLargeException` If `ReportActivity` was started with a large report, i.e a few hundred `KB`, like for terminal transcript or other command output, the activity start would fail. To solve the issue, if the serialized size of the ReportInfo info object is above `DataUtils.TRANSACTION_SIZE_LIMIT_IN_BYTES` (`100KB`), it will be saved to a file in a cache directory `/data/data/com.termux/cache/report_activity` as a serialized object and loaded when activity is started. Now these large reports can't be copied or shared with other apps since that would again result in `TransactionTooLargeException` exceptions and `ShareUtils` automatically truncates the data (now from end) to `100KB` length so that the exception doesn't occur. So now a `Save To File` option has been added in context menu (3 dots on top right) of `ReportActivity` so that large or small reports can be saved to a file if needed. They will be save in root of `/storage/emulated/0` or whatever is the default public external storage directory. The filename would depend on type of report. The storage permissions will be asked if missing. On android `11`, if you get permission denied errors even after granting permission, disable permission and grant it again. To solve privacy issues of report being saved to public storage since it may contain private info, an option for custom path will be added in future. The default directory is public storage instead of termux home since its easily accessible via all file managers or from pc. Instructing amateur users to get files via `SAF` from termux home is not something I wanna take on. Another issue is that `ReportActivity` itself may not be able to show the entire report since Android may throw `OutOfMemoryError` exceptions if device memory is low. To solve this issue, `ReportActivity` will truncate the report to `1MB` from end that's shown to the user. It will add a header showing that report was truncated. To view the full report, the user will have to use the `Save To File` option and view the file in an external app or on pc that supports opening large files. The `QuickEdit` app on Android has been a reliable one in my experience that supports large files, although it has max row/column limits too at a few hundred thousand, depending on android version. Despite all this, `OutOfMemoryError` exceptions could still be thrown if you try to view too large a report, like a few MB, since original report + the truncated report is still held in memory by the app and will consume `2-3` times memory when saving. It's fun coding for android, right? The terminal transcript will not be truncated anymore that's generated via `Report Issue` option in terminal. ([`351934a6`](https://github.com/termux/termux-app/commit/351934a6)) - Add `TextIOActivity` and `TextIOInfo`. The `TextIOActivity` can be used to edit or view text based on various config options defined by `TextIOInfo` and supports `monospace` font and horizontal scrolling for editing scripts, etc. Current max text limit is `95KB`, which can be increased in future. ([`c3280a94`](https://github.com/termux/termux-app/commit/c3280a94)) - Add constants for launcher activities of termux plugins. ([`5e2bec0f`](https://github.com/termux/termux-app/commit/5e2bec0f)) - Add `Theme.MaterialComponents.DayNight.TermuxPrimaryActivity` theme can be used by activities for day and night mode. ([`0bf4b1ec`](https://github.com/termux/termux-app/commit/0bf4b1ec)) - **!** Support for delete intent for Notification.Builder in NotificationUtils. ([`baacabdf`](https://github.com/termux/termux-app/commit/baacabdf)) ### Changed - **!** Only allow `ContentProvider` access if `allow-external-apps` is set to true. **The `termux-open` and `xdg-open` commands will now silently fail if value is not set to `true`.** An error notification will be added in future versions. The caller app like `QuickEdit` may still show a flash error. Check https://github.com/termux/termux-tasker#allow-external-apps-property-optional on info on how to change the value. ([`dcedf394`](https://github.com/termux/termux-app/commit/dcedf394)) - Move to semantic versioning for app and library versions and add commit hash and `github` to APK file names and add support for `TERMUX_APP_VERSION_NAME` and `TERMUX_APK_VERSION_TAG`, `TERMUX_SPLIT_APKS_FOR_DEBUG_BUILDS`, `TERMUX_SPLIT_APKS_FOR_RELEASE_BUILDS` environmental variable in `app/build.gradle`. The `RELEASE_TAG` variable will not be used anymore since it may conflict with possibly other variables used by users. The `TERMUX_SPLIT_APKS_FOR_DEBUG_BUILDS` can be set to `0` to disable building split APKs which may be helpful for users building termux on device considering they will extra space and build time. Instructions for building are at https://github.com/termux/termux-packages/pull/7227#issuecomment-893022283. ``` export TERMUX_SPLIT_APKS_FOR_DEBUG_BUILDS=0 ./gradlew assembleDebug ``` The APK will be found at `./app/build/outputs/apk/debug/termux-app_debug_universal.apk` Note that F-Droid uses algorithm at https://gitlab.com/fdroid/fdroidserver/-/blob/2.1a0/fdroidserver/build.py#L746 to automatically detect built APKs, so ensure any modifications to location or file name are compliant. Auto updates are detected by `checkupdates` bot at https://gitlab.com/fdroid/fdroidserver/-/blob/master/fdroidserver/checkupdates.py ([`177fb048`](https://github.com/termux/termux-app/commit/177fb048)) - Store `termux-widget` token synchronously to the `SharedPreferences` file on creation. Attempt to solve [[termux/termux-widget#16](https://github.com/termux/termux-widget/issues/16)](https://github.com/termux/termux-widget/issues/16). ([`4f66786b`](https://github.com/termux/termux-app/commit/4f66786b)) - **!** Do not wait for the user to press enter for failed terminal session commands if plugin expects the result back. ([`c19e01fc`](https://github.com/termux/termux-app/commit/c19e01fc)) - Make sure full path is included in `FileUtilsErrnos`. ([`f00738fe`](https://github.com/termux/termux-app/commit/f00738fe)) - Disable `shrinkResources` for testing reproducible builds. ([`23b707a8`](https://github.com/termux/termux-app/commit/23b707a8)) - Ensure bootstrap installation creates prefix and prefix staging directory before extraction. ([`4e5f2c7e`](https://github.com/termux/termux-app/commit/4e5f2c7e)) - Ensure termux files directory is accessible before bootstrap installation and provide better info when running as secondary user/profile. Related issue [#2168](https://github.com/termux/termux-app/issues/2168). ([`6fa4b9b7`](https://github.com/termux/termux-app/commit/6fa4b9b7)) - Add selinux context info to termux files info of debug output. ([`f97f07df`](https://github.com/termux/termux-app/commit/f97f07df)) - Use multi-process SharedPrefernces for log level of plugin apps. Since termux-app runs in a separate process from other apps, if a user sets log level in termux settings, then it would require exiting the `termux-app` completely since android caches `SharedPrefernces` in memory and only writes to the file on app exit. Now updated value will be instantly written to the file so that plugins can directly read at startup. If plugins are already running, they would need to be restarted since usually log levels are loaded at startup. ([`9f1203f0`](https://github.com/termux/termux-app/commit/9f1203f0)) - `Drawer` `extra-keys` button will toggle instead of just opening. ([`16c56a96`](https://github.com/termux/termux-app/commit/16c56a96)) - Renamed typo `TERMUX_ACTIVITY.ACTION_FAILSAFE_SESSION` to `TERMUX_ACTIVITY.EXTRA_FAILSAFE_SESSION`. ([`b68a398f`](https://github.com/termux/termux-app/commit/b68a398f)) - Set default cursor color to white.

We do not need to bump to `compileSdkVersion` 31 currently, since I have decided not to bump `androidx.window` to `1.0.0-alpha10` or higher currently, since it has changed APIs and ViewUtils will break. Moreover, bumping compileSdkVersion to 31 requires openjdk 11 in build environment, which will break Jitpack library build and possibly still F-Droid as well, unless changes are made.
