I’m glad to announce v0.4.0 release!

The major feature of the new release is fltk-frontend and improvements BEP protocol implementation.

You can download ready-to-use binaries for Linux x86_64, Windows (WindowsXP is supported!) and Mac OS X (Apple silicon).

Syncspirit is a syncthing-compatible synchronization program that implements BEP-protocol. Syncspirit is a syncthing-compatible is written from the scratch software in C++ as classical desktop application, which had different technical decisions on its foundation to overcome syncthing limitations.

Hello Lemmy,

This is an extension of the bluetuith TUI Bluetooth Manager project, which was initially developed for Linux, and is now being ported to Windows as well. This will allow the TUI to manage Bluetooth on Windows. Note that this is just a shim, the TUI will be ported to adapt with this shim later.

This tool offers a simple command-line interface and a socket-based interface (as an interprocess communication layer) to control Bluetooth Classic based functions, like:

• Getting adapter information, performing device discovery, setting power states
• Getting device information, pairing/unpairing a device
• Connection to a device using various Bluetooth profiles
  • The supported profiles are A2DP, MAP, PBAP and OPP
  • Each connectable profile appears as a subcommand of the connect command
  • Every subcommand has multiple functions. View the documentation for more information.

This is currently alpha stage, so do expect bugs. Any bugs can be reported in the issue tracker.

Although this feature is still in BETA with lot's of functionality missing. I made this project open source so developers can contribute their solution to this project.

What happened with this "hack" and the findings of Mr. Patange?

Did Android simply kill the possibility of such a sync function?

Microsoft's own Android Keyboard Swiftkey (yea I know, but I really need some functions of it) allows the syncing of clipboard content between Android and Windows. However, I heard that it's bad security and privacy practice to even enable clipboard history on Windows. I d
