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.
