Termux Tandem

<div class="post-text">
<p>I learnt about <code>termux</code> from a friend on IRC recently. It looked super gimmicky to me at first, but it eventually proved to be useful. Here’s what I use it for:</p>
<h3 id="rsync">rsync</h3>
<p>Ever since I degoogled my android device, syncing files between my phone and my PC has always been a pain. I’m looking at you MTP. But, with <code>termux</code> and <code>sshd</code> all set up, it’s as simple as:</p>
<pre><code>$ arp
Address HWtype HWad ...
192.168.43.187 ether d0:0 ...
$ rsync -avz 192.168.43.187:~/frogs ~/pics/frogs</code></pre>
<h3 id="ssh-tmux">ssh & tmux</h3>
<p>My phone doubles as a secondary view into my main machine with <code>ssh</code> and <code>tmux</code>. When I am away from my PC (read: sitting across the room), I check build status and IRC messages by <code>ssh</code>ing into a tmux session running the said build or weechat.</p>
<h3 id="file-uploads">file uploads</h3>
<p>Not being able to access my (ssh-only) file host was crippling. With a <code>bash</code> instance on my phone, I just copied over my ssh keys, and popped in a file upload script (a glorified <code>scp</code>). Now I just have to figure out a way to clean up these file names …</p>

<h3 id="cmus">cmus</h3>
<p>Alright, I don’t really listen to music via <code>cmus</code>, but I did use it a couple times when my default music player was acting up. <code>cmus</code> is a viable option:</p>
