Or you could go and buy a PC interface that actually supported BT's
implementation of CLI, such as the Crucible Meteor...

Note that you'll need to download the linux interface for it from
patrick.lidstone.net rather than getting them from Crucible directly. The
linux interface presents as a xAP message, so you can capture that in pretty
much anything. xAP libraries are available for C, Python, and PERL on linux.

Personally, I use the linux Meteor driver in a Cygwin window, and then
capture the xAP events with a .NET application on another PC, but that's not
the way I'm expecting anyone else to do it :-)
