# Methane

Methane was supposed to be a ruby cross-platform Campfire client.

The idea was to build the GUI using qtruby and qt-webkit.

Where HTML UI elements (with Tempo.js/jQuery) inside a webkit frame

communicate through a websocket with

the the backend (EventMachine + tweetstream + tinder).

## Failure

I failed to get a stable build (qtruby keept crashing for any unknown reason)

so I discontinued any development.

Who knows, I might or not get back to this idea with a smarter approach.

Till then feel free to play with it and hack around.

## Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

    gem 'methane'

And then execute:

    $ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

    $ gem install methane

## Usage

Building qtruby might take some time. Please be patient, after what just run:

    $ bundle exec methane
