Hi,
I've added a few lines to hcid.conf.5, please see if they are okay (bluez-devel:
could you confirm that this information is correct and eventually commit it?)

 \fBpin_helper\fP "\fIfile\fP"
  

The path to the PIN helper application. The default is "/bin/bluepin". +The PIN helper is invoked with the direction of request (in/out), the bluetooth +destination address and the device name as parameters.
+(e.g. /bin/bluepin out aa:bb:cc:dd:ee:ff "my device")
The following output is expected from the PIN helper:

PIN:12345678

thanks,
filippo
