I saw this on an old thread in the archives, wrt discovering remote bluetooth
devices not yet 'paired':

You are correct - you could not do it. You will need to display a panel at
some point for the user to select a device/service. Unless you wanted to use
the raw device address, which is less than optimal. We do hope to release an
API to do this. If the lack of this API this is absolutely prohibitive to
what you are trying to do, let us know and we'll escalate its importance on
the to-do list.>>
Was wondering if this API has ever come to pass, either in beta or
elsewhere. I have no gui (am entirely command-line driven), and I
need to make a discovery of what's in the vicinity of my my mac w/o
user interaction.... so this API would be great.
Thanks in advance for any pointers.
