This is mhxd, a merge of the 3 different forks of hxd. hx is a free set of software using hotline protocols. For information about Hotline, see: http://www.vivahx.com/ Viva HX! http://www.hotspringsinc.com/ Hotsprings Inc. http://www.hotlinehq.com/ Hotline HeadQuarters For the latest information about hx, see: http://hx.fortyoz.org/ http://sourceforge.net/projects/hotlinex/ See the AUTHORS file for contact information. To compile hxd, you need an ANSI C compiler, preferably the GNU C compiler. Traditional compilers may work, if they understand function prototypes. The ultrix 4.3 compiler does, if your compiler does not, try ansi2knr. The Tiny C Compiler (Linux only) will compile hxd very fast, but apparently causes hxd to segfault. If you run into problems building or running, see PROBLEMS. Building instructions ===================== hxd server ========== $ ./configure --enable-hxd By default pthreads are used if available, to disable, use --without-pthreads $ make To install it in ./run/hxd/ : $ make install To start the server: $ cd ./run/hxd $ bin/hxd [-p port (default 5500)] [-f hxd.conf] To leave it in the background, add & to the end of the command line. to register with a tracker: configure with --enable-tracker-register and edit the tracker section of hxd.conf To compile the tracker server: configure with --enable-hxtrackd To enable /exec and /find: configure with --enable-exec To edit accounts on a tty, use acctedit (src/acctedit/acctedit) Enter toggles access, s saves, q quits. Many other optional configure options exist. For a list, run ./configure --help hx client ========= To compile the client, configure with --enable-hx You may need to get libreadline from ftp://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/readline/ Soundsets are loaded with snd -S sndset_file Turn sounds on/off with snd -O/-o ghx client ========== Add --enable-gtk to the configure flags. Specify icon files with icon_files[i]=... User icon files with user_icon_files[i]=... Files with lower indexen are loaded first For example: icon_files[0]=icons.rsrc user_icon_files[0]=bm_icons.rsrc user_icon_files[1]=icons.rsrc SOCKS proxy support =================== hxd can use the socks5 library from http://www.socks.nec.com/ use the --with-socks and/or --with-socks-include configure options.
