30Several applications support beaming files in a format specific to that application (specifically, Contacts, Calendar,
31and Todo). However, sometimes you may need to simply send a file to another device via IrDA, regardless of the
32file type. To do this, you can use either AdvancedFM (yet to be documented), or you can do this from the
33Documents tab. To beam a file from the Documents tab, you must first add that file to the Documents tab if you
34havent already (see <xref linkend="adddoc">). Then, go to the Documents tab and press and hold on the icon for
35the file you want to send. A dialog should appear, with a button in the bottom right labeled "Beam". Press this
36button, and Opie will beam the file to any waiting devices.
