Nice. I just tried it, and while the terminal reads, it isn't a pleasant 
environment to work in. Any tips on how to use it more effectively?


In particular, the terminal is represented by a single block of text, 
and doesn't seem to support reading by lines. So I read the entire 
terminal, run a command, reread the terminal... Maybe there's a more 
convenient way to do this? Also, using TalkBack's new Braille keyboard 
doesn't seem to submit commands when the keyboard submits. Guessing I'll 
need a physical keyboard for this.


I wish individual lines were separate touch targets, and maybe that the 
view announced changes automatically. I may look into that. Android's 
accessibility APIs certainly don't make advanced things very easy. :(
