obexftp - Mobile Equipment file transfer tool

SYNOPSIS

obexftp [OPTION] [COMMANDS]

DESCRIPTION

obexftp is used to access files on mobile equipment, i.e. cell phones.

This tool lets you access the ObexFTP library by the means of a command line interface. You might consider using the other means available. E.g. GTK Client gObexFtp, Gnome-VFS-Module vfs-obexftp and some others.

The software is tailored for Siemens mobiles like the S45/ME45. Ericsson phones are tested and supported, too. Tell me if something goes / goes wrong using different mobiles.
