NAME

       anyremote - control PC with Bluetooth/Wi-Fi cell phone .br

SYNOPSIS

       anyremote [-f file] [-s connect string] [-log] [-a]

		 [-fe port] [-http] [-u username] [-name SDP service name] [-password]

       anyremote -h|-v .br

DESCRIPTION

       The overall goal of this project is to provide remote control service on Linux through Bluetooth, Wi-Fi or just TCP/IP connection.

       anyRemote supports wide range of modern cell phones like Nokia, HTC, SonyEricsson, Motorola and others.

       It was developed as thin "communication" layer between Bluetooth (IR, Wi-Fi)-capabled phone and Linux, and in theory could be configured to
       manage almost any software.

       anyRemote is console application, but in addition there are GUI front-ends for Gnome and KDE.

OPTIONS

   -h
       print short help and exit

   -v
       print version number and exit

   -f /path/to/configuration/file
       By default anyremote will try to find and use $HOME/.anyremote.cfg, then ./.anyremote.cfg. It is possible  to  specify  configuration  file
       directly with -f option.

   -s connect string
       where connect string can be one of:

	    bluetooth:_channel_ (Server mode - bluetooth connection)

	    socket:_port_      (Server mode - TCP/IP connection)

	    web:_port_	       (Server mode - Web interface)

	    local:/dev/ircommX	(Server mode - IR connection)

	    rfcomm:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:CC  (AT  mode  -  bluetooth connection, where XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX is bluetooth device address and CC is channel
       number - integer from 1 to 32)

	    /dev/ttyACM#       (AT mode - cable connection)

	    /dev/ircomm#       (AT mode - IR connection)

	    ilirc:_AF_LOCAL socket file_ (use with inputlircd)

	    stdin

   -log
       print verbose logging information to $HOME/.anyRemote/anyremote.log

   -a
       reconnect automatically in case of connection failure, used only in AT-mode

   -fe _port_
       Work as backend for GUI frontend. Use specified port to connect to frontend.

   -name SDP_service_name
       if bluetooth connection is used, allows one to specify SDP service name.

       Default value for SDP service name is "anyRemote"

   -password
       If this option is specified, then anyRemote will ask the client for the password.

       Password phrase should be stored in $HOME/.anyRemote/password file in plain text.

   -u|--user _username_
       if started from root, allows one to set effective user ID to specified user
