Howto utilize the irda port on the Zaurus

==Intro==
On the left hand side of the Sharp Zaurus a !IrDa port is located. The !IrDa port is not very powerfull and only can go a few feet at most. A repeater can be used for more fun irda hacking (but that is a separate howto).

==Basics==
At this time applications can utilize the !IrDa port if they are developed with Qt. (If someone know how to use it via java etc please send an e-mail to the address at the top.)

Using the irda port is as simple as creating an object and calling send.

Ir *testIr = new Ir(this, "!TestIrObject");
testIr->send("/proc/uptime", "Uptime file", "text/plain");

You can send files or !DocLnk files. See the documentation that came with the qpe sdk for more detailed information.

==Issues==
When using the function:
void send( const QString & fn, const QString & description, const QString & mimetype = QString::null )
You must set the mimetype if the file doesn't have an extension otherwise the irda transfer will crash the other Zaurus and cause it to reboot.

The signal:
done( Ir * irda )
Is not implemented and shouldn't be used.

The static meathod:
bool Ir::supported()
at the time of this writing isn't supported and will always return true, but the applications should still call this for a future binary that will have a working version of this function.

==Example==
Download example source and binary irda demo app in a tar.gz file [here | http://docs.zaurus.com/downloads/ir.tar.gz].
Simply copy the "ir" executable over to the Zaurus and run it from the command line.
The gui test program allows for either sending text or a file to another Zaurus. The source is included in the tar.gz for further review and exploration.
