This started about the time I bought the styling app, so I suppose there is a slight chance this is related. Google's keyboard lacks too many modifier, function, and arrow keys to be useful on a cli app like Termux. I have the hacker's keyboard set, and it works in all other apps; with the exception of Termux.

I am sorry for not reporting this sooner, but I've been setting up a new laptop. I am running on a 1st gen N7 rooted w/ cyanogenMod.

I updated Termux/packages on an Identical N7 except 4 it's stock rooted, w/o the styling app; and it's Termux still picks up the Hacker's Keyboard just fine.

I am going to try w/o the styling app, and see if that helps. I might also try wiping the app cache 4 Termux. If these steps fail I will try a backup/reinstall of Termux.

I'll report back if anything I can come up w/ works.
