through the terminal with hack.chat\n\n![PythonVer](https://img.shields.io/pypi/pyversions/termchat.svg)\n[![PyPI](https://img.shields.io/pypi/v/termchat.svg)](https://pypi.python.org/pypi/cryptowatch)![platform](https://img.shields.io/badge/platform-macOS%2C%20Linux%20%26%20Windows-blue.svg) [![license](https://img.shields.io/github/license/mashape/apistatus.svg?style=plastic)]()\n\n\u003c/div\u003e\n\n## Usage\n[![termchat_1.png](https://s1.postimg.org/6uq7rg3han/termchat_1.png)](https://postimg.org/image/1qej263k23/)\n```bash\nusage: termchat [-h] [-r ROOM] [-n NICK] [-v]\n\nChat through the terminal with hack.chat\n\noptional arguments:\n  -h, --help            show this help message and exit\n  -r ROOM, --room ROOM  Choose the name of the chatroom to enter\n  -n NICK, --nick NICK  Set the username for others to see\n  -v, --version         Display the current version of tchat\n```\n\n## Install\n```bash\npip3 install termchat\n```\n\n## What's Special\nThere are a few things that is awesome about this project and [hack.chat](hack.chat) in general the first is they are both open source!\n\n* Open source is love.\n\n* [hack.chat](hack.chat) already never holds onto these chats unlike other services such as Skype as soon as all parties leave the chat all chat history is never again obtainable\n\n* No one needs to sign up for an account, which is always a plus!\n\n* Can be used from the terminal, so no web browser is necessary!\n\n* By utilizing a client to interact with hack.chat we can add things like encryption (soon to come)\n\n* Python and the curses interface go together like two peas in a pod\n\n## Dependencies\n  * Python 3\n  * websocket-client\n\n## Todo\n  - [ ] Add end to end encryption\n  - [ ] Check for an active connection status before starting the application\n  - [ ] Check if message went through and the ip hasn't been rate limited\n  - [ ] If user has left add a message to the chat from System with this info\n\n## Special Thanks\n\n#### Hack.chat\nWithout the hack.chat [project](https://github.com/AndrewBelt/hack.chat) by [AndrewBelt](https://github.com/AndrewBelt) deployed [here](hack.chat) this project would have been a lot more complicated as most of the heavy lifting is done by it.\n\n#### Hackchat Chatbot Library\nThe Hchat.py file was largely based on [this project](https://github.com/gkbrk/hackchat/blob/master/hackchat.py) by [gkbrk](https://github.com/gkbrk) which was modified so that it could be used without the need for a bot.\n\n#### Interface\nThe interface in this project was largely based on [this project](https://github.com/mathiasbc/slacky) by [mathiasbc](https://github.com/mathiasbc) which was modified to integrate with the hackchat library rather than the slack client.\n\n##### Check out these projects because without them this would not have been possible :tada:\n\n## Donate\nIf this project helped you in any way and you feel
