TorChat2

========

If you are looking for **TorChat 0.9.9.xxx** (the original Python

implementation) then please switch to the **torchat_py** branch.

For downloads of the latest versions please see the downloads

section: https://github.com/prof7bit/TorChat/downloads

Please don't use the master branch at all, it still points to 

torchat_py but will soon be moved, if you have own work based on 

master then please rebase it to torchat_py.

This branch **torchat2** is a rewrite from scratch, using Lazarus +

Free Pascal. This will make it easier to create plugins for 

existing IM applications and also allows to easily generate code 

for a wider range of platforms, especially mobile devices 

like Android and iPhone.

At the moment this branch is mainly used to develop a plugin

for libpurple (the Pidgin-IM) which will be the first thing

that you can expect to come out of this branch, later (once

this works) there will also be a standalone GUI that will 

completely replace the current Python implementation (Don't 

worry, the python version will stay here in the torchat_py

branch, it is the reference implementation of the protocol, 

I'm still using it myself as protocol documentation and to 

test other implementations against it, it will not go away)

Please note that TorChat is produced *independently* from the Tor® anonymity software, I am not related with or sponsored by torproject.org. TorChat is making use of the Tor® client software and the Windows version comes bundled with original Tor binaries but TorChat itself is a completely separate project developed by totally different people, so if you instead want to buy the developers of Tor® from torproject.org a beer (they deserve it even more than me and without their great Tor software my little program would not have been possible) then please consider doing so at the following address:
