ObexTool patch 0.31.2
This patch solves the "path_exists" problem for Siemens C65.
It's also a replacement for the patch 0.31.1 as it includes both changes.

Download the patch from: http://www.tech-edv.co.at/vcms/upload/obexpatch-0.31.2.tgz (http://www.tech-edv.co.at/vcms/upload/obexpatch-0.31.2.tgz)
Save the current version of the files $OBEXTOOL/lib/obexfile.tcl and $OBEXTOOL/lib/obextree.tcl - they will be overwritten by this procedure.

Bug in Siemens SMS-Plugin in early 0.3-alpha
Due to a small bug in the Siemens SMS Plugin, an update (http://www.tech-edv.co.at/vcms/upload/siempl03.tgz) has been made available for download.
Just untar it in the ObexTool main directory and start the ObexTool.
People which have downloaded the ObexTool after 2004/09/10 do not need any update.
