Blowfish-SMS by s7ephen

Blowfish_sms is a script that runs on Android's SL4A (Scripting Layer For Android). It uses native API's to perform GUI and other "phoneish" things. It is intended to demonstrate the ease and power of having scripting languages available on your phone.

Dependencies

• SL4A (Scripting Layer For Android). Download it on your computer here, or use the barcode scanner on your phone to auto-download it:

• Python For Android. Download it on your computer here, or use the barcode scanner on your phone to auto-download it:

• Thats it!

Note:
SL4A will allow you to use QR-Codes (the barcode thingies above) to distribute your scripts also if they are below 4096 bytes in size! You can generate them here

If I get the time to implement Blowfish in pure Java I may port this over a native Dalvik runtime (.apk). But for now I think the "openness" and readability of scripts makes it easier to "trust" an application of this kind, which is why I thought this was a perfect app to write using SL4A.

Install

• Install Scripting Layer For Android
• Install Python for Android
• Mount your phone as a USB Drive (standard feature on Android phones ;-)
• Download blowfish_sms.py (or copy it out of the downloaded repository bundle) and copy it to : sl4a/scripts/ on your phone.
• Thats it!
