      An introduction to Linux and infrared devices and how to
      use the software provided by the Linux/IrDA project.
      This package uses IrDA(TM) compliant standards.
      IrDA(TM) is an industrial standard for infrared
      wireless communication, and most laptops made after
      January 1996 are equipped with an IrDA(TM) compliant
      infrared transceiver. Infrared ports let you
      communicate with printers, modems, fax machines,
      LANs, and other laptops. Speed ranges from 2400bps to
      4Mbps. The Linux/IrDA stack supports IrLAP, IrLMP,
      IrIAS, IrIAP, IrLPT, IrCOMM, IrOBEX, and IrLAN.
      Several of the protocols are implemented as both
      clients and servers. There is also support for
      multiple IrLAP connections, via several IrDA(TM)
      devices at once. The Linux/IrDA project started at
      the end of 1997 and its status is still experimental,
      so please don't expect every feature working
      straight. AFAIK Linux/IrDA is the _only_ open source
      IrDA implementation currently available. Remote
      Control (RC) via infrared is not the aim of the
      project, though partly treated in this HOWTO.
