jaap-jan 5b32c76c95 Android: the redesign — a Vaults tab with hosts, keychain and snippets, card lists, a keychain that can add, and files that act on what is chosen

The bottom bar is Vaults · Connections · Settings, drawn as Material 3 pills with icons from the embedded
Material font and a count of open sessions on Connections, which replaces the strip of shells above the
bar. Vaults is the open vault: its header carries the name as a switch to the vaults screen, the sync
light and a lock icon, and a Hosts · Keychain · Snippets segmented control sits under it. The keychain
and snippets move there from Settings (IsVaultSurface lights the tab; IsMoreSurface no longer lists
them), and back from either goes to the hosts. Settings becomes an account card and grouped sections:
security, vaults and history, files, this app.

Host rows are cards with a terminal tile and the live dot on its corner. The connect sheet names the
host and its address, labels its box, focuses it as it opens, reveals the password on request, and puts
CANCEL left and CONNECT right; every two-button row on the head now confirms on the right. While a
hosts-screen sheet is up the header and bar are dimmed too and a tap on them lowers it, and the bar
stands down while the software keyboard is up.

The keychain gains a floating + and a sheet of the desktop's five adds (generate a key, paste a key, a
password, a bucket, a tag) over the editors VaultViewModel already had, drawn as a full-screen page with
labels above the boxes; a chosen item gets EDIT and COPY PUBLIC KEY beside MOVE and DELETE. Snippets get
a floating + and cards that say RUNS or INSERTS. Files trade the seven-button block for a selection bar
(save, and a ⋮ sheet with rename, move, permissions and a red delete), folder and file tiles, an upload
button, and header actions for a terminal on the same host, refresh and close; a terminal's + sheet
opens SFTP on that terminal's own host.

The theme takes the audit's visual findings: Fluent's ClipToBounds is cleared on glowing buttons so the
glow is no longer cut to a square (the desktop's Button.accent too), prose is Montserrat with mono kept
for addresses and code, disabled secondary buttons are quieter than enabled ones, Fluent's dropdown,
checkbox, switch, focus and selection brushes come from the palette, touch no longer leaves hover fills
behind, and lists, nav entries and icon buttons carry names for TalkBack.

Builds clean; checked on the emulator end to end: unlock, the three vault views, adding and deleting a
password, connecting through the new sheet, files on the terminal's host with the selection bar and
its sheet. App tests 727 of 733 pass with 5 skipped; the one failure, TheCountsAPhoneShows_
FollowEveryForwardsState, passes three runs of three alone and is untouched here. Layout tests pass.

jaap-jan 367cebae9b Android: a customisable key bar, a quick-access keyboard, a long-press cursor gesture, and a side panel on tablets

The key bar above the software keyboard is now the user's own: which keys, in what order, up to sixteen
in two rows that never scroll. Ctrl and Alt latch across the bar and the phone's keyboard, and Ctrl or Alt
with a cursor key sends the modified CSI form. Seven predefined groups (essentials, cursor, control,
symbols, tmux, vim, function) and keys of one's own, written in \e / ^C notation, are arranged on a
customise sheet that saves as it goes.

A grid button swaps the software keyboard for a quick-access keyboard of the same height, with KEYS,
SNIPPETS, HISTORY and APPEARANCE tabs; it reopens to the tab last used. Snippets go through the shell's
existing InsertSnippet. History keeps a typed command only once the remote has echoed it, so nothing
typed at a password prompt is ever recorded; it is memory-only and LOCK clears it. Each session pump now
keeps its last kilobyte of output and the alternate-screen state for that test (OutputTail).

Long-press and drag on the terminal sends arrow keys, as a joystick with three speeds by distance;
scrolling is unchanged and there is no mode switch. It takes the touch before Chromium's own long press,
so a held finger no longer pastes; paste is on the bar by default instead. A switch in APPEARANCE turns
the gesture off. The text-size buttons moved from the bar to APPEARANCE.

On wide screens the same tabs open as a side panel beside the terminal, toggled from the top bar, with
the bar's own keys repeated at the top of KEYS while the bar stands down.

The model, gesture arithmetic, echo reading and history are in DodoSSH.Client.Shell and covered by
TerminalKeyboardTests and OutputTailTests. Builds clean; not yet exercised on a device, because the
emulator's install is locked behind a passphrase that was not recorded.
