-ObexFTP VFS for Midnight Commander. Manipulate a cell phone's filesystem using obexftp.
+ObexFTP Virtual FileSystem for Midnight Commander.

+Manipulate a cell phone's filesystem calling obexftp binary. This is a complete
+user-mode solution, no kernel modules required (unlike SieFS or such). The
+script implements all commands of Midnight VFS, except for undocumented "run";
+but there are no runnable files in the cell phone. The script is written in
+Python because I love Python, the best of all languages, and I need to parse
+XML directory listings from obexftp.
+
 The script requires Midnight Commander 3.1+ (http://www.ibiblio.org/mc/),
-Python 2.2+ (http://www.python.org/), OpenOBEX 1.0.1+ (http://openobex.sourceforge.net/)
+Python 2.2+ (http://www.python.org/),
+OpenOBEX 1.0.1+ (http://openobex.sourceforge.net/)
 and ObexFTP 0.10.4+ (http://triq.net/obexftp).
 
-Edit the full path to the obexftp binary (see below). Put the file to the
-/usr/[local/]lib/mc/extfs, and add a line "obexftp" to the
-/usr/[local/]lib/mc/extfs/extfs.ini. Then create somewhere a transport file.
+Edit the script, and correct the shebang path, if your python is not in the
