Tox protocol

[watcher]

This topic is dedicated to Tox protocol development and beta-testing.

When creating new Tox account you can use Tox profile from another Tox client (see the screenshot) to import your existing friend list:



If you choose not to import old Tox profile - press "Create" button to create a new one.

Current state of Tox protocol in Miranda

Testing!

Is there a Visual C++ Redist requirement for this? (looks like the 2010 one)

I cannot load the plugin, it says (when starting miranda):

Similarly. Please share a file. Or can you say that you need to reinstall?

It's just a debug builds, i will rebuild it as release in a short while.

Done, please re-download.

блин, айдишка сменилась а так круто. только ника нету, хоть в настройки и вписал.

[Vulpix]

Done, please re-download.

It works! And sends messages too!

I have a question. For users who did not import their profile - where in Miranda can they check their own Tox ID so I can add them? (I got my Tox ID from uTox as I have been using it previously).

I think it should be easily visible somewhere, like in my details or on the account page - to make it possible for the user to link it to another user.

Otherwise, stellar! Didn't take long to make this!

All I need now is file transfer and we're golden

Much <3 to unsane/watcher/everyone.

In search section enter the ID and press "Add to list" without pressing "Search" button. It supposed to work this way, although I'm not sure that it works at all yet. But you can try anyway.

Well, no; my question was, how do I know my own Tox ID (as a miranda user). I cannot put it in search if I don't know it x3

And a second question:

After running the dbchecked, it said there were some duplicate items (skipping). After launch, I checked history and found that the check garbled some of the history.

I used the "mark events as read" option, because all events were shown every time I opened the chat window (and I know that marking all events as read fixes this).

Sample of garbled text:

I noticed the same behavior with Steam history so I assume this is some sort of a bug - but I don't know which plugin this relates to. DB checker? History storing itself?

I think it's not implemented yet.

I hope unsane will answer it tomorrow.

Vulpix, thanks for report. I'll fix it at this evening or a bit later)

Hello! Great, now I can see my Tox ID in the accounts pane! However, it would be nice if I could somehow copy it (or see it somewhere from where it can be copied) to share with a friend.

Added in the latest binary.

Another thing is - the issue with the database; is this related to tox/steam protocol or is this something else? Because (as I said a few posts above), these two seem to be showing the same kind of issue. Do you want some more reports about that?

Thank you for your continuous effort to improve Tox support in miranda!

It's better now!

However, every time I restart miranda, my "nickname" is lost (and I become the "tox ID" instead, so it looks very weird in the chat window). Also, setting nickname only affects my miranda - others don't actually see the change.

Update:

I "fixed" this by simply loading the tox profile in uTox, changing the necessary things, saving it, quitting tox and then moving the profile back to where miranda expects it. Nickname etc is now stored correctly :3 this should be fixed, hehe.

[Vulpix]

Issue (minor):

UTF-8 / unicode characters (stuff like: "š ř ž" etc.. ) set as status message in uTox (or other tox clients) are not properly recognized by Miranda - ( uTox is able to display them, however - so the information is properly stored in the stream.). In miranda, they become random garbled characters.

Fixed in the latest binary.
