- GNOME Bluetooth Subsystem
- =========================
-
- Maintained by Edd Dumbill <edd@usefulinc.com>
-
- The GNOME Bluetooth Subsystem is being developed with the ultimate
- intention of being submitted to the GNOME desktop project.
-
- The software is in its early stages right now. See the NEWS file for
- the latest changes in this release.
-
- This package contains a controller class, GnomebtController, to control
- Bluetooth devices, and a simple GUI to explore which devices are
- available (gnome-bluetooth-manager). An OBEX server is available,
- gnome-obex-server. This will receive files sent via Bluetooth to your
- PC, and save them in your home directory. The program gnome-obex-send
- enables you to send files. It is used by the Nautilus component --
- select the files you want to send and choose "Send via Bluetooth..."
- from the context menu.
-
- There is a mailing list discussing this software at
- http://lists.usefulinc.com/mailman/listinfo/gnome-bluetooth
