ANN: Phebe 0.1

[Thomas Lotze]

Phebe 0.1 has been released and uploaded to the Python package index.

>From README.txt:

=========================================================================

Phebe comprises a Python package and a number of executable scripts to
operate a mobile phone connected to your computer.


The implementation follows the Sony-Ericsson developer guidelines for using AT
commands as of December 7, 2006, see
<http://developer.sonyericsson.com/getDocument.do?docId=65054>. It has been
tested only on a SE K750i, using Debian and Gentoo Linux distributions with a
2.6 kernel so far.

The current status of Phebe is "works for me", i.e. it provides the
functionality the author immediately needs: get usage stats of the phone,
back-up the phonebook, dump and delete short messages. See ROADMAP.txt and
TODO.txt for prospective further developments.

While neither talking through the AT command interface nor the higher-level
data structures implemented by Phebe are operating system specific,
communication with the device is. Phebe currently does this by using a Python
module only available on Unix. The author is not going to port Phebe to
non-Unix systems any time soon, so if you want it to support your OS, you have
to supply an appropriate patch.


Phebe was written by Thomas Lotze. Please contact the author at
<thomas at thomas-lotze.de> to provide feedback or suggestions on or

=========================================================================
