Tox-WeeChat
===========
Tox-WeeChat is a C plugin for the [WeeChat][1] chat client that enables it to connect to the [Tox][2] network. It is functional, but fairly limited in features and not intended for general use yet.
Current build status: [![Build Status](https://travis-ci.org/haavardp/tox-weechat.svg?branch=master)](https://travis-ci.org/haavardp/tox-weechat)
Installation
------------
Tox-WeeChat requires the latest [libtoxcore][3] and WeeChat 1.0. It also requires cmake to be built. Installation is fairly simple:
$ git clone https://github.com/haavardp/tox-weechat.git
$ cd tox-weechat
$ mkdir build && cd build
$ cmake -DHOME_FOLDER_INSTALL=ON ..
$ make
$ make install
This installs the plugin binary `tox.so` in the recommended location `~/.weechat/plugins`. Omitting the home folder flag installs it to `/usr/local/lib/weechat/plugins`. Install anywhere else by setting `INSTALL_PATH`.
Usage
-----
- In WeeChat, load the plugin with `/plugin load tox`. If it fails, try specifying the full path to the binary.
- Create a new identity with `/tox add <name>`. The data file is stored in `<WeeChat home>/tox/` by default.
- Connect your identity to the Tox network with `/tox connect <name>`.
- Change your name with `/name <new name>`.
- Get your Tox address with `/myaddress`.
- To add friends or respond to friend requests, `/help friend` will get you started.
- Message a friend with `/msg <friend number>`. Get their friend number with `/friend list`.
A list of commands is available with `/help -list tox`.
