Well I'm brand new to both Linux and Android. I bought my wife an Android phone about two weeks ago. After falling in love with the platform I started doing some research. Found out it was based on or an extension of the Linux system. Just received the Google app creator (yes, in less than 10 days). Just installed my first ever Linux OS. I'm now trying to learn and understand both as fast as I can.
Any links, or information anyone can send my way for learning and understanding Linux and the Android platform would be appreciated. I have created a couple real basic apps, Google made things real simple with the app creator.
Are there any Android developers on this forum? If so what have you created and/or what are your current projects?
Thanks,
-Par3me

airport2-portinspector
AIRPORT2-PORTINSPECTOR(1) General Commands Manual AIRPORT2-PORTINSPECTOR(1)
NAME
airport2-portinspector - Port maps inspector for the Apple AirPort Extreme Base Station ("Snow")
SYNOPSIS
airport2-portinspector
DESCRIPTION
airport2-portinspector allows you to inspect the port maps used by the hosts associated with your base station.
OPTIONS
airport2-portinspector accepts no command-line options. airport2-portinspector is a wrapper script around the PortInspector.jar jar file
located in /usr/share/java/airport-utils.
You can set the JAVACMD environment variable to use a specific JVM instead of the one chosen by the wrapper script. Set the DEBUG environ-
ment variable to 1 to get the debug output from the wrapper script.
ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES
DEBUG Set this variable to 1 to get the debug output from the wrapper script.
JAVACMD
The full path to the Java Virtual Machine to use. By default, the wrapper uses JAVACMD; if it is not set, it looks for
JAVA_BINDIR/java, then for JAVA_HOME/bin/java before looking for a java executable in the PATH. In the latter case, the JVM used can
be configured using the Debian alternatives system (see update-alternatives(8)).
JAVA_HOME
The full path where your JDK/JRE is installed.
JAVA_BINDIR
The full path to the directory where the java executable is located.
JAVA_ARGS
Extra command-line arguments to be passed to the Java Virtual Machine.
