Textsecure for Terminal

[Tyler Manson]

Howdy folks, Jani,

In case you're interested in developing, or just want to use textsecure
in your terminal I just wanted to let people know this exists:

https://github.com/f4lk0r/textsecure-client

It's a (shitty?) attempt at a textsecure client in Ncurses.
Unfortunately, I am starting classes again, and so I'm about to lose
nearly all of my time to dev. This is functional, but not good enough
yet in my opinion to release to the general public:

It lacks a scrollback buffer - I need to set that up, probably with a
doubly linked list with pointers to where the top of the screen is in
the conversation history.

The other thing is it lacks local encryption of the conversation
database. Another thing to get to.

After those two are implemented, I'll probably make a posting on the
general textsecure mailing list and call for testers. But until then,
I'm not happy enough with the application to release it to the general
public. Unfortunately it means the application may be sitting without
any work on it for a while. So if anybody on this list wants to look and
contribute some commits, I'd be grateful. Otherwise I will get back to
it, just not immediately.

Privacy in communications is a fundamental human right codified in
Article 12 of The Universal Declaration of Human Rights. Organizations
and individuals that participate in the mass surveillance of internet
communications are committing crimes against humanity.

In order to resist those that seek to abuse the powers of technology, as
well as to explicitly establish an objective expectation of privacy, I
strongly recommend the use of PGP encryption in all private dialogue
between individuals, yourself and myself included. My public key

Hello Tyler,

this is really nice from looking at the README and the screenshot :)

I could not go get it though since the library had some API changes in the past two weeks, readLine is no longer used but separate callbacks are needed for codeVerfication and storagePassword.

Feel free to file bugs for other issues you had encountered in the library or API changes that may make sense for a client app. The logging to screen is definitely something that has got to go, it's on

my TODO list. 

cheers

Hey ya'll,

Later today I'll upload a copy of the older library that works with the
API my current application expects, and in the future, I can work with
that, pull from your library, make API updates in my code, so on and so
forth...
