HOWTO Cross compiling on Android

What is NDK

NDK (Native Develop Toolkit) is a toolchain from Android official, originally for users who writes native C/C++ code as JNI library. It's not designed for compiling standalone programs (./a.out) and not compatible with automake/cmake etc.

What is Standalone Toolchain

"Standalone" refers to two meanings:

1. The program is standalone (has nothing connect to NDK, and don't need helper scripts to run it)
2. The toolchain is made for building standalone programs and libs, and which can used by automake etc.

(Optional) Why NDK is hard to use

By default, NDK uses android flavor directory structure when it's finding headers and libs, which is different from GNU flavor, so the compiler cannot find them. For Example:

Some more info can be found here https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ServerGUI. I assume you start with a clean install of Ubuntu Server 16.04 (some modifications may be needed for older versions of Ubuntu). Depending on your needs you can do these:

Minimal GUI:

sudo apt install xorg
sudo apt install --no-install-recommends openbox
Run the command startx and openbox will start (you can open a terminal there and run any application you want)

        echo "No file provided"
        exit
fi
if [ ! -f "$1" ]; then
        echo "File does not exist"
        echo "$1"
        echo ""

This is a Python script to extract GNOME/GTK's color scheme and apply it to Wine, so that the themes (approximately) match.

Instructions:
1. Set your Gnome theme as you would like it
2. Run with a command like "python wine_colors_from_gtk.py" If made executable you can run it in bash as-is
3. Open winecfg, go to Desktop Integration and install the new .theme file created
4. Hit apply and restart any apps running in Wine.  They should match the Gnome theme colors now.

Integrating native file explorer on wine with linux.

This is mostly aimed at osu! mappers/storyboarders who need an easy way to access osu! beatmap folders through wine.

Introduction

This is a quick tutorial on how you can edit some wine registry files to make wine open the native linux file explorer when clicking the Open folder menu on whatever application uses it, since the explorer.exe application doesn't integrate that well with the linux environment.

The main use-case for this workaround is the case of those who need to work with a high bandwidth of files being moved around and shared/edited/whatever it's needed to do with it. ^{eg. osu!mappers}
