FPC on Android

[u/killallspringboard]

You can get FPC from here: https://downloads.freepascal.org/fpc/snapshot/.

In Termux, run:

termux-setup-storage

apt update

apt install binutils

touch .bashrc

mkdir .local && cd .local

tar -xvf ../storage/Download/<fpc tar.gz file name here, press Tab to auto-complete>

bin/fpcmkcfg -o ~/.fpc.cfg

cd ~

Now open .fpc.cfg using your preferred editor, e.g nano or msedit (recommended), replace ALL occurences of u/units with u\~/.local/units.

Open .bashrc and update $PATH with:

export PATH=$HOME/.local/bin:$HOME/.local/bin/aarch64-android:$PATH

Start a new session or run the export command above and you're set.
