How do i use lxml in Android?

Question

Python for Android supports lxml. But how can I import it? On the google site, there is a modul in a recipe.sh file. But i can not run it through the shell there. I get some errors:

app_122@android:/mnt/sdcard $ sh recipe.sh
: nor found]
recipe.sh[6]: get_directory: not found
: not found]
recipe.sh[9]: syntax error: '{^M' expected
1 app_122@android:/mnt/sdcard

Can't I just get some .py file and simply import it into my programms?

I used this code: https://github.com/kivy/python-for-android/blob/master/recipes/lxml/recipe.sh

Can someone help?

I think you might be confusing py4a which is a sister project of SL4A (Scripting Layer For Android) with https://github.com/kivy/python-for-android which is a sister project of Kivy

Both are different projects with different targets. You should be clear about which project you want to use. Read the docs to get more familiar.
