1) What is the correct PLATFORM for the make command? Is it android? Termux isn't really android, it is its own version of unix, similar to Debian.

I would try PLATFORM=linux and see if it works.  If not, you may need your own sub-makefile for Termux, starting with Makefile.linux and tweaking a few things.  Read the warnings here:  <https://termux.com/linux.html>.

You'll need to set Chicken's idea of the PREFIX to the same as Termux's idea with PREFIX=$PREFIX, or use some other prefix, as /usr does not exist.

You will have to specify C_COMPILER=clang on the make line, as Chicken's makefile defaults to gcc and gcc is no longer available on Termux.

Best of luck, and tell us how it goes!
