I have felt the same way. Is the reason it's not already done (and the pitfall for you if you take on a project like this) that "re-write major chunks of Emacs" is a pretty big job? There is already Emacs ported to Android; it isn't very convenient nor working that well yet IMO. Maybe that project could use some help to make it work well enough to use for this?? -- David R
