Exactly what I needed All I needed was an ssh client which supported copy/paste and multiple windows. Termux is great for that if you're used to the environment. I also needed an editor  so I installed zile  then I installed emacs on a whim  and when that worked  I ran apt list and things got a little silly after that. I uninstalled the other ssh clients I'd been trying and I might just use termux for everything now.
