Using gnokii on Linux


gnokii is a cross-platform open source interface to Nokia devices. It runs a variety of hardware and operating system platforms, including Linux and BSD. gnokii features a sophisticated command-line interface for exchanging contacts, calendar items, and even SMS messages between a PC and a connected Nokia device. You can download the gnokii software and read its documentation at http://www.gnokii.org/.

A drawback of gnokii is that it does not integrate with the existing address book program on the host computer.

Several GUI wrapper programs have been developed to make gnokii's command-line interface user friendly. You can see their screenshots and find the download links at http://www.gnokii.org/screenshots.shtml.
