CellShell 0.1

I uploaded the first version of CellShell (if it can be called a version yet) to google code. You can check it out at:

For now it includes searching for bluetooth devices and selecting one and sending SMSes via the selected bluetooth device. Of course, in order to do that, we need a small python program to run on the phone. This for the time being is run through python shell for s60 which is part of the pyS60 package released by Nokia that allows running python on s60 enabled devices. Later on as I mature things up a little and add more features, I'll start shipping it as proper SIS file.

For the time being, I am just putting the code up there and will keep on working on it as I get time. I hope that I will find some developers out there who will find this project useful and start contributing to it more. For the time being, the next few features on my agenda list are:

• Messages backup
• Contacts syncing
• Message searching

Here is a screenshot which shows the cellshell at work:



If any body out there finds it interesting and wants to give it a try, let me know and I'll guide you through any problems that you may face.

Just started working on CellShell, a shell prompt for cell phones. Being developed in python and using pyS60 on the client end, I am currently focusing on Nokia series 60 phones. The project aims to provide a command prompt similar to bash, python prompt, mysql etc; with custom commands to perform tasks via a bluetooth connection to a phone. Tasks include:

• Sending smses
• Receiving smses
• Syncing contacts
• Backup messages
• MMS sending and receiving

Though, these are not all of the features, initially, I am focusing on these and then getting soem initial release out in the community to see how it goes.

Lets see how it goes.
