If you want a fancy G.U.I. application (GTK+), I've heard good things about The Blueman Project (net-wireless/blueman), although I've never used it myself. I assume it transfers binary files with OBEX [1], conferring with the BlueZ kernel driverset [2, 3]. $ ash-euses -so obex # shameless plug net-wireless/bluez:obex - Enable OBEX transfer support I'm sure you've already seen this, but you might derive value from the "Device Pairing" section of the Bluetooth Gentoo Wiki page with `bluetoothctl` [4].
