| 33 ** WTF ? ** | |
| 34 SàT is a XMPP (Jabber) client, made on a daemon/frontend architecture. Its aim is not only to be an instant messagery client: XMPP offer a lot more, and differents tools will come in the future. | |
| 35 | |
| 36 For the moment, the frontends are: | |
| 37 | |
| 38 * wix: a wxwidget frontend, the main graphical frontend | |
| 181 | 39 * primitivus: a console interface client, for screen lovers |
| 0 | 40 * jp: the command line toolkit. The tool for geeks by geeks |
| 348 | 41 * libervia: the web frontend. It's in a different package, check libervia on the wiki: http://wiki.goffi.org/wiki/Libervia |
| 0 | 42 |
| 43 other frontends planed in the near future: | |
| 44 | |
| 45 * a KDE 4 frontend, as KDE is my main desktop environment | |
| 46 | |
| 47 | |
| 48 | |

| 51 ** How to use it ? ** | |

57 SàT is really at an early dev stage, so it's maybe the buggiest software you have ever seen, and there are for the moment absolutely nothing to ease the installation and use (but it will be the case ASAP, one of the goal of the project is the ease of use). |
| 0 | 58 There will probably be a wiki doc in the future. |

| 102 SàT is the acronym (yes another one :( ) in tribute to the song Salut à Toi from the Bérurier Noir band. I recommand also the excelent cover from Les Ogres de Barback. | |
| 181 | 103 jp stands for "Jabber coPy" or "JumP". If you look well, you can also find my initials ;) |
| 104 Primitivus is based on Urwid, and, according to their FAQ, "ur" is a german prefix for "ancestral or primal" (primitivus is latin word) | |
| 0 | 105 wix come of course from the WX of wxwidgets and just sound cool :). |
| 106 | |
| 107 | |
| 31 | 108 ** /!\ Privacy warning /!\ ** |
| 0 | 109 |
| 31 | 110 To make setup easier, SàT ask my website (http://www.goffi.org) the external ip address of client. So a request is made to this page: http://www.goffi.org/sat_tools/get_ip.php . |
| 111 The IP are not collected. Future releases will probably come with a warning about this and an easy way to avoid it. | |

| 114 ** Credit ** | |
| 115 | |
| 181 | 116 A big big thank to the authors/contributors of... |
| 117 | |
| 0 | 118 proxy65: |
| 119 SàT (plugin_xep_0065) use nearly all the code from proxy65 (http://code.google.com/p/proxy65/) wich was coded by Dave Smith (2002-2004) and maintained by Fabio Forno (2007-2008). | |
| 181 | 120 As the original MIT license allow, the code is reused and sublicensed until GPL v3 to follow the rest of the code. |
| 0 | 121 |
| 122 progressbar: | |
| 181 | 123 SàT (jp) use ProgressBar (http://pypi.python.org/pypi/progressbar/2.2), a class coded by Nilton Volpato which allow the textual representation of progression. |
| 0 | 124 |
| 125 twisted: | |
| 348 | 126 SàT is heavily based on the twisted framework (http://twistedmatrix.com/trac/), a very great tool which offer a lot of protocols management. There are too many contributors to name them here, so take a look on the website :). |

131 wxWidgets & wxPython: |
| 181 | 132 The Wix frontend is made with wxWidgets (www.wxwidgets.org) and its python version wxPython (wxPython), which is a really handy UI toolkit who works on most popular platforms. It can be found on probably all major Gnu/Linux distributions. |
| 133 | |
| 134 Urwid: | |
| 135 Primitivus is based on Urwid (http://excess.org/urwid/) which saved me a lot of time. It's really a great library to easily make a sophisticated interface. | |

| 348 | 137 Pyjamas: |
| 138 Libervia is built with a Pyjamas (http://pyjs.org), a Google Web Toolkit port for python, including Python to Javascript compiler, and Pyjamas Desktop which allow to execute the same application on the desktop or throught a browser. It's really an amazing tool. | |
| 139 | |
| 140 Pyfeed and Xe: | |
| 141 SàT core and Libervia use pyfeed and xe (http://www.blarg.net/%7Esteveha/), 2 libraries made Steve R. Hastings really useful to parse/generate xml stuff as atom feeds. | |
| 142 | |
| 143 txJSON-RPC: | |
| 144 Libervia use txJSON-RPC (https://launchpad.net/txjsonrpc), a twisted library to communicate with the browser's javascript throught JSON-RPC | |

151 The Tarot cards pictures come from the deck found on wikicommons (the script used to cut them is available at frontend/src/wix/images/split_card.sh), and available at http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/8/8d/Tarotcards.jpg under Creative Commons BY-SA. The authors shown on the site are Piast and Svick. The splitted cards are, according to the license, available under the same conditions. |
| 181 | 152 |
| 153 the powerfull ImageMagick (http://www.imagemagick.org/) is used by the script written to split the previously named picture. | |

| 0 | 155 and the others: |
| 181 | 156 and of course, nothing would be possible without Python (http://www.python.org/), Gnu and the Free Software Foundation (http://www.gnu.org, http://www.fsf.org/), the Linux Kernel (http://www.kernel.org/), and the coder of the tools I use like Vim (http://www.vim.org/), Mercurial (http://www.selenic.com/mercurial/wiki/), or all the KDE stuff (http://www.kde.org/ and of course http://amarok.kde.org/), and also XFCE (http://www.xfce.org), etc. Thanks thanks thanks, thank to everybody in the Free (Libre) chain for making a part of the dream. |
