// termux-api.c - helper binary for calling termux api classes
// Usage: termux-api ${API_METHOD} ${ADDITIONAL_FLAGS}

//                                                        --es socket_output ${OUTPUT_SOCKET}

//        where ${INPUT_SOCKET} and ${OUTPUT_SOCKET} are addresses to linux abstract namespace sockets,
//        used to pass on stdin to the java implementation and pass back output from java to stdout.
