# WARNING

### It is very very alpha right now. Many features don't yet work.

## Issues:

 - Windows broadcast packet sending seems different. I am hacking it locally and sending it to 127.0.0.1 instead of 255.255.255.255 but I am not sure why 255 doesn't work on windows.

 - Sending the message to another user hasn't been tested it. There were some heavy api changes in the networking layer so I assume that it probably won't work.

## Future Features:

 - Send parts of nukescripts/extra mimedata to the other person.

 - Emojis/gifs

 - Nicer UI

 - timestamped messages

 - Remote user's messages should be right justified.

 - Refresh should happen passively every 1min or so.

 - Refresh should remove uses that are no longer around.

 - Build it into a Qt panel for Nuke or Maya.
