== NAME

skyped - allows remote control of the Skype GUI client

== SYNOPSIS

skyped [<options>]

== DESCRIPTION

Skype supports remote control of the GUI client only via X11 or DBus
messages. This is hard in case you want remote control. This daemon
listens on a TCP port and runs on the same machine where the GUI client
runs. It passes all the input it gets to Skype directly, except for a
few commands which is related to authentication. The whole communication
is done via SSL.
