I can answer this one: there are already a few people who are interested in Hecl for this reason: they want to use it to write code on the phone. That was never my intent with the system, as it seems painful to me, but if there are already a few using my little language, which is not well publicized, there must be a bunch more out there. And if people are doing that with existing phones, I think things will only get better in the future.
