+### Screenshots
+*Toxygen on Ubuntu and Windows*
+![Ubuntu](/docs/ubuntu.png)
+![Windows](/docs/windows.png)
+
+Windows was working but is not currently being tested. AV was working
+but is not currently being tested: we're unsure of handling the AV devices
+from the commandline. We need to get a working echobot that supports SOCKS5;
+we were working on one in https://git.plastiras.org/emdee/toxygen_wrapper
+
+## Forked
+
+This hard-forked from the dead https://github.com/toxygen-project/toxygen
+```next_gen``` branch.
+ 
+See ToDo.md to the current ToDo list.
+
+## Wechat
+
+You can have a [weechat](https://github.com/weechat/qweechat)
+console so that you can have IRC and jabber in a window as well as Tox.
+There's a copy of qweechat in ```thirdparty/qweechat``` backported to
+PyQt5 and integrated into toxygen. Follow the normal instructions for
+adding a ```relay``` to [weechat](https://github.com/weechat/weechat)
+```
+/relay add ipv4.ssl.weechat 9000
+/relay start ipv4.ssl.weechat
+```
+or
+```
+/relay add weechat 9000
+/relay start weechat
+```
+and use the Plugins/Weechat Console to start weechat under Toxygen.
+Then use the File/Connect menu item of the Console to connect to weechat.
+
+Weechat has a Jabber plugin to enable XMPP:
+```
+/python load jabber.el
+/help jabber
+```
+so you can have Tox, IRC and XMPP in the same application!
+See docs/ToxygenWeechat.md
+
+## Install
+
+To install read the requirements.txt and look at the comments; there
+may be things that need installing by hand or decisions to be made
+on supported alternatives.
+
+https://git.plastiras.org/emdee/toxygen_wrapper needs packaging
+on pypi as it is a dependency. Just download and install it from
+https://git.plastiras.org/emdee/toxygen_wrapper
+
+This is being ported to Qt6 using qtpy https://github.com/spyder-ide/qtpy
+It now runs on PyQt5 and should soon run on PyQt6 and may run on PySide2 and
+PySide6 - YMMV. You will be able to choose between them by setting the
+environment variable QT_API to one of: pyqt5 pyqt6 pyside2 pyside6.
+
+To install it,  look in the Makefile for the install target and type
+```
+make install
+```
+You should set the PIP_EXE_MSYS and PYTHON_EXE_MSYS variables and it does
+```
+	${PIP_EXE_MSYS} --python ${PYTHON_EXE_MSYS} install \
+		--no-deps \
+		--target ${PREFIX}/lib/python${PYTHON_MINOR}/site-packages/ \
+		--upgrade .
+```
+and installs into PREFIX which is usually /usr/local
+
+Up-to-date code is on https://git.plastiras.org/emdee/toxygen
+
+## MultiDevice
+
+Work on this project is suspended until the
+[MultiDevice](https://git.plastiras.org/emdee/tox_profile/wiki/MultiDevice-Announcements-POC) problem is solved. Fork me!
