It is only provided with SILC -Toolkit package as an example GUI application, to show how to program with -SILC Toolkit. It is a good example for all GUI programmers to figure out -how to hook up SILC Toolkit, and in the end the SILC Client Library to a -GUI application. - -The silcer.png file found in this package is a screenshot of the -application in action. You can compile it by running first the -./autogen.sh script and then giving command `make' or `gmake'. - -When you run the silcer you must run it by giving command src/silcer -because it will attempt to look for GUI files in the ui/ directory found -in this package. So, do not enter src/ directory, but run it directly -from the root where you gave the make command. - -When the program starts it will attempt to connect directly to -silc.silcnet.org router on port 706. After it has connected you can -freely use it as any SILC client. In the input box on the screen you can -give commands. Commands, such as /nick, /join, etc. The application is -only an example so all features has not been implemented. For example -various command notifications and other notifications are not implemented -on the screen. This means that when you give command /nick you won't -actually see whether your nickname changed or not. But it did. :) Same -is when you join to a channel by giving command /join you won't get list -of users or other familiar things. This is because those notifications -has not been implemented. They are left as an exerise for Toolkit -programmers. You can still converse on a channel. You will see other -users' messages on the channel and you can talk to the channel, so you can -test the application if you like. - -The sources resides in the src/ directory and are C++. The GUI files -resides in ui/ directory and was done with glade. - -Happy hacking!
