A Tox-based instant messaging and video chat client

Toxic is a Tox-based instant messaging and video chat client.

Installation

See the install instructions

Settings

Running Toxic for the first time creates an empty file called toxic.conf in your home configuration directory ("~/.config/tox" for Linux users). Adding options to this file allows you to enable auto-logging, change the time format (12/24 hour), and much more. You can view our example config file here.

Troubleshooting

If your default prefix is "/usr/local" and you receive the following:

error while loading shared libraries: libtoxcore.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

you can attempt to correct it by running sudo ldconfig. If that doesn't work, run:

echo '/usr/local/lib/' | sudo tee -a /etc/ld.so.conf.d/locallib.conf
sudo ldconfig

toxic's Issues

Window resize causes visual problems

Example: chat messages from other users in groupchat disappear.

Window resize causes "textfield" on bottom to change size; cursor in strange locations

I'm using terminal.app on OSX. Can anyone else confirm these issues on other terminals and OSs?

Toxic doesn't display some messages correctly

Fails to build with --disable-av

settings.c includes audio_call.h (only for MAX_DEVICES) even when AV disabled

I'm not sure how it should be fixed so i didn't make a pull request, but this works

Design question: Which alerts are necessary?

The prompt and chat windows seem to get spammed with excess information, especially when someone connects (nick change/online/status/statusmsg all at once, some of which i've already disabled in my latest pull). I think only vital information should be actively shown in the prompt/chat windows, and everything else can be viewed passively.

Using other messengers as examples, we don't normally get a popup when someone changes nicks or updates their personal note etc. They're usually reserved for connection alerts, and friend requests. I think userstatus and note changes should be shown in active chat windows, but not the prompt, and nick changes should be completely silent.

Though with no way to uniquely identify a friend, nick change alerts might be necessary. I'm not sure...any thoughts or suggestions?

Show ID prefix in friends screen

When you try to add friends and some of them are still "anonymous" (a stage every new user goes through), it's impossible to know which is which (if I wanted to delete the one that started with 1234, it would take many keystrokes and lots of concentration).

"anonymous" is not the only concern: If an "anonymous" turns out to be an "Alice", and I already know an "Alice", I'd still have a similar (or worse) problem 😖

Multiple IDs

Just like the Bitcoin client, we should be able to generate as many IDs as we want and name them.

Longer messages are not displayed correctly

↑ Toxic is not able to display whole message that Venom is able to. Message is cut in half.
Message received in group chat, also was displayed properly in IRC.

I /quit Toxic, restart it, and I get
[15:05:01] * ~XM-1M-- (~\^^A has come online

The name in the friends list is the same still, "DinoSaurus", and when I open the PM window, I get
[Online] ~MM-?% M-7
Yes, on two lines.

The "tab/tool bar" sais
TOXIC 0.3.2_r793 | [prompt] [friends] [

Third restart
[15:06:40] * ~MM-?% M-7 has come online

I switched to the friend list before they "came online", and the name in the friend list looked like that. But when they "came online", the name in the friend list got fixed so it was "DinoSaurus", but when I PM them they are still called that "obfuscated" name.

This happened recently, but I don't rememver which commit.

Edit
My friend just PM'd me back, so here is how it looks:
The [prompt] window sais
[15:06:40] * ~MM-?% M-7 has come online

the [friends] window looks like intended; > O DinoSaurus

and the PM window now sais

No connection on FreeBSD

Toxic currently does not connect to the Tox network. It will open, but it will endlessly print "Establishing connection..."
Furthermore, tcpdump doesn't detect anything trying to connect to port 33445.

Segfault on openSUSE 13.1

Due to some problem with ncurses toxic doesn't run on openSUSE

backtrace: https://gist.github.com/sudden6/9652660

First problem I see is ncurses not being found: https://gist.github.com/sudden6/9674035
it is definitly installed on my system, including the devel packages.

The second problem is the segfault, which I have no idea how this is happening.

Add new friend, hangup before they confirm friendship causes segmentation fault

bug - When I add a new friend, then try to connect to them before they have accepted my friend request, issuing a /hangup command results in : Segmentation fault (core dumped)

jack_client_new: deprecated

Building latest Toxic from git, start it, I get jack_client_new: deprecated.
Obviously, I am using JACK Audio. It has worked before, but after the last 3 commits, this happened.

I do not get this error if I compile without AV support.

Remember groupchats

Implement a /save command that saves the ID of a groupchat so it can be rejoined on the next launch of toxic

Back space leaves ć character

Backspace (among other special keys) leaves a weird character instead of backspacing.

Prompt.c command parsing

a few weeks ago @fhahn refactored the command parsing in prompt.c, but it was left unfinished and remains broken.

Issues:

• You shouldn't be forced to add a status message with the status command
• Status messages and add messages should not require quotes in order to contain more than a single word.
• Command functions should handle their own arguments completely; the commands struct should not exist in its current form.

If it were up to me we'd go back to the old method that's still being used in chat.c. It might be ugly, but it's simple, versatile and it works perfectly. If this issue doesn't get resolved soon I'm probably going to end up reverting back to that, because rather than finding this refactor saner, I find it unnecessarily complicated and restricting.

Segmentation faults on Cygwin and OpenSuSE

toweI has reported in a Tox IRC channel a segmentation fault he experiences with Toxic running on Cygwin, a stack trace being available at: https://gist.github.com/anonymous/9c2dc6d6ce6ea2f41e9a

@sudden6 reported a segmentation fault on OpenSuSE 13.1 in ticket #106 with a basically identical stack trace, available at: https://gist.github.com/sudden6/9652660

It is worth noting that toweI reported that Toxic worked once (the same binary) on Windows for him. This raises some interesting ideas - could there be a threading related issue?

Need complete redraw for /clear and /help

If you have toxav, you might get some stderr messages until it figures out the best in and out devices (then it says audio's fine).
Neither /clear nor /help redraw the screen from scratch. The only way to get the screen to redraw is by resizing the terminal window 😈

Toxic doesn't support some unicode characters

↑ http://graphemica.com/%F0%9F%98%8F

That, and many other.
Problem isn't just that Toxic doesn't want to display it, I also can't paste symbols in Toxic, to send them.

It wouldn't be a big issue, if not for Antox, which apparently supports them quite nicely, and allows to send many unicode characters as messages.. And they're not displayed in Toxic.

12 or 24 hour time?

Ideally we should have this as a setting, but until then, let's have a vote. Should toxic stick with 24 hour time, or switch to AM/PM?

Toxic splitts, while Venom stays connected

↑ comparison between Venom and Toxic, while Toxic experiences something 'split alike'.

Beside easily noticeable problems:
• What is written in Toxic is shown in Venom, also other peers seem to see it
• Messages by other peers aren't displayed in Toxic, but are in Venom
• From time to time list of connected peers fluctuates rapidly by ~ 30-60%. At all time number of connected peers in Toxic differs from number in Venom.

EDIT: Sorry, wrong image.

Segfault

Toxic will segfault after my mac goes to sleep.
I was running toxic 0.2.4_r634.

groupchat problem after coming back from sleep

To reproduce:

1. acquire laptop
2. install toxic
3. go into a groupchat
4. close laptop lid
5. wait a bit
6. open laptop lid
7. ???
8. bug

Warning about not sent message fails to appear

When sending messages in bulk (i.e. many/second) Toxic seems to not be able to send more than 16 messages between clients on a localhost. Rest of messages isn't sent, with warning displayed as * Failed to send message.. Unfortunately, if sending messages in bulk is kept (i.e. I keep CTRL + SHIFT + V pressed) message about inability to send message disappears, even though last messages are dropped.

↓ Below is testing message I've used. Copypaste it continuously into chat in Toxic.

Toxic does not support certain characters

Toxic in version 0.2.7_r689 does not support certain characters.
The ones I personally need, are:

ą
Ą
ć
Ć

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/%C4%84#Computing_codes
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/%C4%86

When typing 'ą' “cursor” seems to go into next character position ( Alt gr + a ).
When typing 'Ą' “cursor” seems to go into previous character position ( Alt gr + Shift + A ).
When typing 'ć' after some characters, it seems to remove previous character ( Alt gr + c ).
When typing 'Ć' “cursor” seems to go into beginning position ( Alt gr + Shift + c ).

They are widely used in Polish language, and I was very upset when I saw that other characters I need did work, except those few..

When typed in IRC and sent by SyncBot are rendered correctly:

Please fix it.

Configurable tab-switching shortcuts for alternative keyboard layouts

The shortcuts for tab-switching which are ctrl+o and ctrl+p are designated for the QWERTY keyboard layout.
This can be bothersome for users of alternative keyboard layouts such as Colemak and Dvorak.
It would be preferable to have the ability to change the shortcut for these functions.
An alternative would be to use ctrl+, and ctrl+. instead as these buttons are almost always beside each other in most layouts.

Suggestion: Bash/emacs macros

Don't you think some simple bash/emacs keyboard macros like C - a and C - e would be useful?
I do.

Groupchat display fails to update

Version: 0.3.1_r768
OS: debian linux

Steps to reproduce

Add syncbot
Msg invite
join groupchat
talk a bit in groupchat
go to syncbot window and /close
Groupchat window no longer updates
????
Profit
If you then open any other window, it starts to update again.

Show nospam bytes in chat window like the first 4 bytes of id

This is so we can manually compare the latest id a friend (or syncbot) sends us and determine if we need to readd that friend with the new nospam

Toxic uses 5-20% CPU while idle

Toxic seems to constantly run on 5% CPU usage up to 30% at times looking at in htop. I use PulseAudio.

Not even Skype uses this much. Skype idle's on like 4%. What can be the cause of this? A/V?

Are there any keybinding to scroll chat/groupchat view up and down?

Only keybinings for scrolling userlist view are mentioned in /help.
But I think scrolling chatview is much more important.

collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status

Was going to build Toxic after #101 was fixed, but when running make it fails to build:

/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -ltoxcore
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -ltoxav
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
Makefile:423: recipe for target 'toxic' failed
make[2]: *** [toxic] Error 1
make[2]: Leaving directory '/home/brott/build/toxic/build'

make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory '/home/brott/build/toxic'
Makefile:322: recipe for target 'all' failed
make: *** [all] Error 2

I did rebuild and installed ToxCore before I tried to build Toxic.

aalib for video

Creating an issue here in case anybody actually steps up to implement it. Would be epic.

[20:38] <SylvieLorxu> You've got to be kidding me
[20:38] <SylvieLorxu> A CLI client is the first one to support audio?
[20:38] <SylvieLorxu> Holy shit, lol
[20:38] <SylvieLorxu> I've NEVER seen that before
[20:38] <zetok> not lol
[20:38] <Landswellsong> SylvieLorxu: inb4 ascii art video
[21:14] <cpolymeris> yes, please: toxic video using aalib

Ctrl-left and ctrl-right issues in textinput

Instead of jumping to the end/start of the word thess keybindings make funny characters like

$ /status busy $ ȬȝȬȝȬ

BTW I'm using gnome-terminal if that matters.

Newest Toxic doesn't build

Following error: https://gist.github.com/sonOfRa/9583945

Toxic doesn't seem to try to link against pthreads. In order to fix this, one can invoke CFLAGS="-pthread" ./configure. However, this should be handled by configure itself, one shouldn't have to add that flag manually

Compiling with AV fails

I just compiled Tox Core from git, and now Toxic fails to compile. Toxic compiles fine with --disable-av though.

Makefile:676: recipe for target 'toxic-audio_call.o' failed
make[2]: *** [toxic-audio_call.o] Error 1

fails to build when tox-core was built with nacl instead of libsodium

Auto-connect failed with error code 1, can't get rid of it

I've googled, found the solution for this issue, but it won't work;

mkdir -p ~/.config/tox
wget -O DHTnodes http://stupiddog.soupwhale.com/files/tox/dht/DHTnodes
mv DHTnodes $HOME/.config/tox/DHTnodes

I even ran the python script to update the nodes, but still getting the error;

Starting audio...
$ Input device: Built-in Audio Analog Stereo
Output device: OpenAL Soft
Audio started with no problems.
$
Auto-connect failed with error code 1
$ DHT connected.

As you can see, I do get a "DHT connected" message, but that's after I get the error.
For that matter, that DHTnodes file seems to maybe be outdated, looking at wiki.tox.im/nodes.

symbol lookup error

toxic: symbol lookup error: toxic: undefined symbol: tox_callback_group_namelistchange

Happened after updating toxcore, libsodium and dependencies on Arch. What I did:

git clone git://github.com/Tox/toxic.git; cd toxic
autoreconf -if
./configure --with-dependency-search=/usr/local/lib/
make; sudo make install
sudo /sbin/ldconfig
toxic

Can't see messages of myself and other people

I can't see them for some reason
Also I got this error while running the terminal
(venom:7617): Gtk-WARNING **: gtk_scrolled_window_add(): cannot add non scrollable widget use gtk_scrolled_window_add_with_viewport() instead

(venom:7617): Gtk-CRITICAL **: gtk_scrollable_get_vscroll_policy: assertion `GTK_IS_SCROLLABLE (scrollable)' failed

(venom:7617): Gtk-CRITICAL **: gtk_scrollable_get_hscroll_policy: assertion `GTK_IS_SCROLLABLE (scrollable)' failed

Voice chat echoes

I was testing voice chat with my brother and the audio calls worked! The problem is that when we initiated our call, I saw this error pop up in the Toxic window that said "AL lib: (EE) alsa_available_samples: avail update failed: Broken pipe". Also, there is this odd echo whenever I talk. I hear myself from my brother's laptop and also through my headphones. Even with his speakers down all the way, it'd echo.
