bluetoothDesktop, updated

bluetoothDesktop, a bluetooth library for Processing, now comes with libraries for Windows and Linux (compiled & tested on Ubuntu 7.10, MBP) and is easier to install.
So, if you're on Windows or Linux and have installed bluetooth hardware, it should just work.
Information on how to get it to work on the Mac can be found on the website.

The documentation looks good; seems ready to be added to the library reference page. Is it well tested?

hi casey,

yes, it's pretty much ready for a wide release. It's extensively tested on Mac OSX 10.4 & 10.5. I'm currently working on some bluetooth apps...Therefore I use it daily and so far everything works well.
I've also tested it under WindowsXP (on an IBM Thinkpad). Finally I got it running on Ubuntu 7.10 (in a VMware virtual machine).
I'm not sure if the native libs I compiled for Ubuntu will work on a wide variety of distros. I have no clue of Linux; compiling avetanaBT was the only thing I've ever done with it. But if the guys are using Linux, they might be able to get it running by themselves Wink
