Easy Bluetooth Module demo

Life has gotten in the way of hobbies and I haven't used the Propeller in over a year. I was poking around in the forums this week and saw that the bst tools allow me to program the Propeller from my Mac, so I was motivated to give it a try. (The Windows machine gathers dust downstairs and never gets turned on.) I got the new Parallax Easy Bluetooth Module and put together the attached very primitive demo program. Using a terminal emulator which talks to the Bluetooth serial port I can type on the Mac's keyboard and have it show up on the Propeller's display and vice versa.
A run-through for creating the Bluetooth serial port under Leopard is at steveandmimi.com/easybt. The program and web page are both things I threw together in a few minutes. I'm falling asleep now but I wanted to post this before bed. If anyone cares I'll try to spruce it all up later.

OS-X: because making Unix user-friendly was easier than debugging Windows
