mShell 2.0 opens the S60 3rd Edition platform for your ideas! The powerful and comprehensive library from
mShell v1.x has been fully ported and even extended. With
mShell 2.0 you can use the rich functionality of a
Symbian OS 9.1 phone for your own applications without going through the tedious
and expensive
Symbian Signed process. Programming a smart phone has never been easier!
Once more we would like to thank you for your valuable feedback from around the world. To better support the active and constantly growing
m community we opened a
forum on this site. We and other
m users would be
happy to see you there and receive your tips and tricks, script contributions and feedback.
And the best:
mShell is still free and it will stay free!

What's new - all platforms:
- The former m Library Part 2 has been fully integrated in the standard library. This is also reflected in the new manual structure which consists of the Tutorial & User Guide, The Reference and the Library Manual. As before, you will find the m documentation - filled with hundreds of examples - a valuable source for pros and beginners to enter the virtually unlimited activity of programming mobile phones.
- New module comm: gives you access to Infrared, USB and Bluetooth serial ports.
- New module msg: generic access to the phones message store.
- New module zip: provides read access to ZIP (PKZIP) archive files.
- New functions net.listen() and net.accept() allow you to create TCP/IP service ports on your phone. Great in conjunction with the WLAN capabilities found many new phones.
- Added find and replace in editor, see entry Find in Edit menu.
- Native Module Interface (NMI) SDK has been updated to support development for S60 3rd Edition devices.
