• Termux can now receive files shared from other apps. Files are saved into ~/downloads/ and it's possible to open this folder or editing a file directly when receiving it. Editing is done through a ~/bin/termux-file-editor program which will be called with the newly received file as only argument.

• Termux can now receive URL:s shared from other apps, which is done by calling a script ~/bin/termux-url-opener with the shared URL as only argument.

• Start using 64-bit arm packages for capable devices. Up until now Termux used 32-bit arm binaries even on 64-bit devices. This change will affect only new installations - existing users may reinstall the app to get a 64-bit environment (making sure to save relevant material from the home folder first).

• Fix ASCII backspace to work across wrapped lines. This enables pil, the picolisp REPL, to work correctly with long lines.

• Keep the EXTERNAL_STORAGE environment variable. This is required on some Samsung devices for /system/bin/am to work, which is used by Termux api commands and termux-reload-settings.

• Remove /system/bin from the default PATH. This avoids confusion with system binaries being run by mistake instead of proper Termux ones. System tools such as 'am' and 'pm' still work and advanced users who need more system tools can add /system/bin back to the PATH manually.

• Add /system/bin to the PATH when launching failsafe sessions so that system tools can be used to repair a broken Termux environment.

• Prevent crashes when trying to launch the styling plug-in under certain circumstances.
