I write quite a lot of code sat in beer gardens using an 80x17 or so terminal on an 8" tablet* plus a Thinkpad Tablet 2 bluetooth keyboard*.

Usually have a temporary screen/tmux session while doing so to let me have my usual multiple-shell setup (on a laptop I tile 2x2 80x24 terminals) and it ... pretty much works fine.

(and I found your lisp from your bio page and while I'm probably never going to try it (I have too many lisps to try already, I accumulate as-yet-untried lisps just like I do as-yet-unread books), it's a really rather neat concept and I hope you have much joy continuing to hack on it)

* When my second Nexus 4 died I tried to find a sensible sized phone, discovered the modern ones were usually phablet sized, stuck the SIM card into my actual tablet and haven't felt the need for a second device again since.

* I am one of the handful of people in existence who actually likes the "optical trackpoint" design.
