[Therion] Simple Android Software with export to Therion

I have been using a Galaxy Note 8 (with Topodroid and Distox) for over an
year and a half and I am very happy with it. The screen is large enough for
detailed and comfortable drawing and the digitiser is precise.

It is not waterproof or rugged, but I have solved this with a simple
waterproof plastic pouch for tablets and a custom made hard carrying case.
The pen itself is not waterproof, but with care it lasts long enough and
replacements are very cheap on eBay.

I can post pictures of the setup in a couple of weeks when I  get back from
caving. I think I have already posted them some time ago.
