+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 not intended for regular use yet, as it lacks a ton of features.
+
+Installation
+------------
+
+Tox-WeeChat requires [libtoxcore][3] to work. After getting it, install Tox-WeeChat like this:
+
+    git clone https://github.com/haavardp/tox-weechat.git
+    cd tox-weechat
+    mkdir build
+    cd build
+
+    cmake ..
+    make install
+
+This places `tox.so` in `~/.weechat/plugins`.
+
+Usage
+-----
+
+In WeeChat, load the plugin: `/plugin load tox`. You should get a new buffer called tox. This is the core Tox buffer, where output from Tox commands will print.
+
+ - To change your name, `/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`.
+
+That's pretty much all that's implemented for now.
