Try Hacker's Keyboard. Or a real bluetooth keyboard.

I now actually prefer the Hacker's Keyboard on my Nexus 6 in portrait because the regular keyboard takes a lot of energy and generally is a hassle and really loud.

I do all of my programming and everything on Android for the last 4 months.

On a Nexus 6? Or on a 9-inch tablet? Why?

I used a 7 inch tablet and now my Nexus. I just need a terminal and/or ssh window and a browser. I have also been sshing into my Linode so maybe that's cheating.

But I can do that stuff fine on a tablet/phablet. Laptop is really big and heavy and uses 2-10x as much energy. Seems outdated. And typing is really loud.
