This plugin for Another Term has been created in order to still be able to run Linux applications in the PRoot environment on Android 10 (API 29) and higher. It can also be used with any API >= 21 for convenience. The implemented approach is not different from UserLAnd but separating it into a plugin seems more convenient.

Details on the “Linux under PRoot” feature and Android 10 can be found here.

The plugin currently contains minitar (for extracting .tar.gz/bz2/xz) and PRoot. Call without arguments for usage details.

While you can download the APKs here directly, you should preferably use an F-Droid client so the app stays up-to-date on your device. Some clients have this repo enabled by default, e.g. Neo Store or, of course, the IzzyOnDroid client by Sunil. With others (like the official client) you'll have to add this repo manually (see the hint on top of the package list for how to do that).
