Android: keyboard handling option

[chrisws]

with the commands

w = window()
w.showKeypad()

the keyboard in Android can be shown. Is it somehow possible to hide the keyboard? Reason is, when I'm using the editor in Android with an active keyboard and clicking on run, then the program starts with an open keyboard occupying 1/3 of the screen. My little game is using the full screen for graphics and I have always to hide the keyboard manually.

It can be useful for the keypad to remain open depending on what you are working on.

There should be an option to control this behaviour.
