Possible Patch: list paired devices

Marcel,

I noticed that there is no way to list paired devices from
hcitool/hciconfig, 
at least I couldn't find a way to do so.   Here is a
proposed patch to 
hcitool which will show a list of paired devices.  

I'm not sure if this is the right solution, since it
requires hcitool to be 
run with effective permissions to access the linkkeys file
(e.g. root on my 
system).  If there is a better way let me know.

Also, will the patch for 128 bit UUID searching in sdptool
get merged into 
CVS, or did I mess something up again?

Regards,
-Denis

you can use standard tools like grep and awk to get this
information and
since we have the limitation with the root access, I am not
going to add
this. Use the new D-Bus interface to retrieve this
information.

The patch is in my todo stack, but I haven't looked at it.
