Version: 0.3

Description:
 kde4 currently does not support directly open
bluetooth devices in konqueror or dolphin , like
it was in kde3.
There is a smal script for very powerfull gtk2
application blueman (let's not discuss here that
kdebluetooth4 is far away from something working
at a moment) , which allows you open bluetooth
device in konqueror after you click "Browse Files
on device" .See the screenshot

Dependencies:
1.blueman (which is gtk2 application , but can
handle everything you need with bluetooth devices)
2.obexfs (fuse virtual file system for bluetooth
devices) .It's VERY recomended to have latest
version  - at least obexfs-0.11 or better
obexfs-0.12
3. konqueror (dolphin does not handle these shares
yet.Sorry)

How to setup:
1.Copy attached script to /usr/local/bin and make
it executable
2.In blueman  options "Local Services->Advanced"
point the command to open the files to the one
provided by me on second screenshot:
/usr/local/bin/bluemankde4_open %d
3 Add user you are logged in kde to the group
"fuse" .It's required to run obexfs as user

If all Ok You will see the same screen in
konqueror as mine.And from that moment you are
able to read and write to bluetooth device
If you have any problems , please send me the
output of /var/log/messages .I will take a look
and will help


Changelog:
 0.1

0.2
changed path to cat : from /usr/bin/cat to cat
