# Toxic
|
|
Toxic is an ncurses based instant messaging client for [Tox](https://tox.im) which formerly resided in the [Tox core repository](https://github.com/irungentoo/toxcore) and is now available as a standalone program. It looks like [this](http://i.imgur.com/hL7WhVl.png).
|
|
|
|
## Installation
|
|
|
|
### Base dependencies
|
|
* libtoxcore
|
|
* ncurses (for Debian based systems: libncurses5-dev libncursesw5-dev)
|
|
|
|
### Audio dependencies
|
|
* libtoxav
|
|
* openal
|
|
|
|
### Compiling
|
|
* `cd build/`
|
|
* `make`
|
|
* `sudo make install DESTDIR="/path/you/like"`
|
|
* You can add specific flags to makefile with `USER_CFLAGS=""` and/or `USER_LDFLAGS=""`
|
|
* You can pass your own flags to makefile with `CFLAGS=""` and/or `LDFLAGS=""` (this will supersede the defaults one)
|
|
* Audio calling support is automatically enabled if all dependencies are found
|
|
|
|
### Troubleshooting
|
|
If your default prefix is "/usr/local" and you get the error:
|
|
```
|
|
error while loading shared libraries: libtoxcore.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
|
|
```
|
|
you can try fix it running `sudo ldconfig`.
|
|
If that doesn't fix it, run:
|
|
```
|
|
echo '/usr/local/lib/' | sudo tee -a /etc/ld.so.conf.d/locallib.conf
|
|
sudo ldconfig
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Settings
|
|
After running Toxic for the first time an empty file called toxic.conf should reside in your home configuration directory ("~/.config/tox" for Linux users). For an example on how to use this config file to save settings such as auto-logging and time format see: [misc/toxic.conf](misc/toxic.conf).
