Description
Feature description
i really like enjoying termux-location function. i do the test in the outdoor ,find it's take a long time( about 2 seconds) to Get the GPS info when run the function termux-location. is there any improvement to promote efficiency for getting the GPS data every second when call the function in the loop? Does the termux-location have the following steps when call the function: step1: active gps step2:get the gps data step3: deactive gps. That is the reason why take a long time?

Research direction
Start with the termux-location command and trace how its Android location request is handled across repeated calls in a loop. Compare the behavior with GPSLogger's one-second recording, which the issue links as a reference. Done means establishing a faster recurring GPS retrieval approach while preserving the command's existing output and behavior.
