Terminal emulator for Android that supports viewing images?
I am planning on logging into my unix desktop via an Anroid tablet. Is there a terminal emulator that will allow me to view images, such as making plots in ipython, via X11 protocol?

Though it is not supported for the Android OS, Terminology is supported on most Android hardware. You'll need to install a more conventional linux installation to run it and its enlightenment libs on, though - which is easily done, nowadays. Dual-boots are pretty common.

Technically, you can run an X server on Android.
For a bare X11 server, see Play store: X Server for example.
That could help with very special needs, like showing a plot window on fixed screen position with no window manager for example.
You could run a full xsession on that display of course, but I think that is not too useful in most general cases.
You would use a normal terminal emulator, and set the display to your X server. (You could run a terminal emulator like xterm on the X server of course - but the X11 keyboard simulation will not really be useable.)
