README for SCPMidlet

Description
-----------

As of this writing, this is a dead simple (but functioning) Java ME/J2ME 
(also known as Java Microedition, or Java 2 microedition) midlet that
can pull back and save to your handheld a single file at a time via scp
from a remote host, or send a single file via scp from your handheld to
a remote host, in both cases using password or keypair-based
authentication. I'm developing it with the intent to build it into
a reasonably full-featured scp client because although there are midlets
that act as ssh terminal clients, there doesn't seem to be an open source
midlet capable of doing scp at all as yet.

It has no capacity for recursive nor multiple fetches or sends, as yet.

It is now capable of browsing the remote directory, in a normal *nix server
setup in which 'ls' is available at the console and remote shell
(ssh) access is available for the account. Uploads from and downloads to
the local directory are now integrated reasonably well with this facility,
tho' as yet you may move only one file at a time.

Note also that while this code  should talk fine to a cygwin server, it 
almost certainly won't work with a typical Win32 setup, since it relies
upon the presence (and expected output) of ls.

As a CDLC-type Java ME/J2ME midlet, scpmidlet should run on a wide variety
of Java ME-equipped smartphones and feature phones.
