anyremote -h|-v
The overall goal of this project is to provide remote control service on Linux through Bluetooth, InfraRed, Wi-Fi or just TCP/IP connection.
anyRemote supports wide range of modern cell phones like Nokia, 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.

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.
where connect string can be one of:
bluetooth:_channel_ (Server mode - bluetooth connection)
socket:_port_ (Server mode - TCP/IP connection)
local:/dev/ircommX (Server mode - IR connection)
/dev/rfcomm# (AT mode - bluetooth connection)
/dev/ttyACM# (AT mode - cable connection)
/dev/ircomm# (AT mode - IR connection)
ilirc:_AF_LOCAL socket file_ (use with inputlircd)
stdin
print verbose logging information to $HOME/.anyRemote/anyremote.log
reconnect automatically in case of connection failure, used only in AT-mode
Work as backend for GUI frontend. Use specified port to connect to frontend.
Tune work with anyremote2html
if bluetooth connection is used, allows to specify SDP service name.
Default value for SDP service name is "anyRemote"
If this option is specified, then anyRemote will ask java client for password.
Password phrase should be stored in $HOME/.anyRemote/password file in plain text.
if started from root, allows to set effective user ID to specified user
