# Using Tox
|
||||||
|
1. Build Tox
|
||||||
|
2. Fix errors
|
||||||
|
3. Consult IRC for help
|
||||||
|
4. Go on debugging journy for devs
|
||||||
|
5. Build Tox for real
|
||||||
|
6. ???
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
For all the work we've put into Tox so far,
|
||||||
|
there isn't yet a decent guide for how you _use_
|
||||||
|
Tox. Here's a user-friendly attempt at it.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
1. Connect to the network!
|
||||||
|
+ You need to connect to a bootstrapping server, to give you a public key.
|
||||||
|
+ Where can I find a public server? Right here, as of now:
|
||||||
|
(the help message from running nTox with no args will help)
|
||||||
|
+ 198.46.136.167 33445 728925473812C7AAC482BE7250BCCAD0B8CB9F737BF3D42ABD34459C1768F854
|
||||||
|
+ 192.81.133.111 33445 8CD5A9BF0A6CE358BA36F7A653F99FA6B258FF756E490F52C1F98CC420F78858
|
||||||
|
+ 66.175.223.88 33445 AC4112C975240CAD260BB2FCD134266521FAAF0A5D159C5FD3201196191E4F5D
|
||||||
|
+ 192.184.81.118 33445 5CD7EB176C19A2FD840406CD56177BB8E75587BB366F7BB3004B19E3EDC04143
|
||||||
|
2. Find a friend!
|
||||||
|
+ Now that you're on the network, you need a friend. To get one of those,
|
||||||
|
you need to to send or receive a request. What's a request, you ask?
|
||||||
|
It's like a friend request, but we use really scary and cryptic numbers
|
||||||
|
instead of names. When nTox starts, it shows your _your_ long, scary number,
|
||||||
|
called your *public key*. Give that to people, and they can add you as
|
||||||
|
as "friend". Or, you can add someone else, with the */f* command, if you like.
|
||||||
|
3. Chat it up!
|
||||||
|
+ Now use the */m* command to send a message to someone. Wow, you're chatting!
|
||||||
|
4. But something broke!
|
||||||
|
+ Yeah, pre-alpha-alpha software tends to do that. We're working on it.
|
||||||
|
+ Please report all crashes to either the github page, or #tox-dev on freenode.
|
||||||
|
5. Nothing broke, but what does */f* mean?
|
||||||
|
+ nTox parses text as a command if the first character is a forward-slash ('/').
|
||||||
|
You can check all commands in commands.md.
|
||||||
|
6. Use and support Tox!
|
||||||
|
+ Code for us, debug for us, document for us, translate for us, even just talk about us!
|
||||||
|
+ The more interest we get, the more work gets done, the better Tox is.
