eSquirt is a simple program developed by HP Labs for the Cooltown project and it is used to transfer data between devices using the infrared ports.
In this test, we have used a PC with an Actisys-IR 220L plus IR Dongle connected to its serial port, and a Compaq iPAQ with Familiar 0.4 distribution.
To be able to communicate the PC and the Compaq iPAQ using eSquirt, first we need to configure the infrared ports in both, and then install eSquirt in both of them too.
