DESCRIPTION

16       anyRemote  is  remote  control  software for applications using WiFi or
17       Bluetooth.
18
19       anyRemote was developed as thin "communication"  layer  between  device
20       with  WiFi or Bluetooth support (which can be cell phone or tablet com‐
21       puter) and Linux PC.
22
23       In theory anyRemote could be configured to manage almost  any  kind  of
24       software.
25

27       tends for Gnome and KDE.
