What's new in this version (1.0.44):
+ Improved Hungarian translation.
+ Added "Holo blue on black" text color preference.
+ Removed the "READ LOGS" permission. Some users were not willing to grant that permission to Android Terminal Emulator. They were worried that there might be sensitive information in a phone's logs. I don't want users to worry, so I removed the permission.
Developers who found the READ_LOGS permission useful will have to build their own versio

Great app. Wish Local mode up arrow would show previous commands like in an SSH connection.

Works great! Pipe symbol still not accepted from stock htc Evo keyboard though. A fix for that and my comment would be "works perfect"!

@ JR that's why you root it

Just about everything on the phone is protected. Useless unless you want to root your phone.

Very nice app. I would appretiate integration of the SYM button on the HW keyboard (HTC Desire Z).
