If you want Euphoria for Android, then you need to target the Dalvik Virtual Machine (which is essentially Java), or at least use the Android Native Compiler. Regardless, you will have to include lots of calls to the Android-specific API with regards to IO and data storage (basically SQLite).

While Android does have Linux at it's core, there is a huge SW layer above that Linux core which is Android specific, and would require a completely different target than does a general Linux version for PCs (whether Intel OR ARM-based).

See all those areas which are not red? Those are the non-Linux, Android-specific layers which Euphoria would have to understand in order to be able to make an Android application.

This is not a small task; in fact, it is much larger task than changing from Windows/DOS PC to Linux/Unix/Mac.

That is more resources than this dev community has to offer.

And as others have pointed out, IT HAS NOTHING WHATSOEVER TO DO WITH THE LINUX KERNEL VERSION!
