Hello! I have tried installing gforth from the play store onto my tablet which is currently running android 12. It worked as expected except for one thing: I tried to edit the .options file. I couldn't find it. My guess is that it's somewhere in Android/data, which has been made impossible to edit from within android, the only way to access it is from a computer, but since I have a samsung tablet, I can't do that in linux, it is only possible with windows. Besides that, even if I didn't have this problem, I'd still like to be able to start forth with the options that I want without an external device. I was also unable to start any of the examples as I couldn't locate them (again, my hunch is that they're somewhere in Android/data). It would be nice to move those files somewhere outside that folder, where they can be accessed by external apps, such as file managers and text editors. Kind regards, Juraj
