Fidelio
[ About | Sources | Screenshots ]
What is fidelio?
Fidelio is a hotline client for GNU/Linux, that uses Gnome and
Gtk+. Hotline is a proprietary protocol of
Hotline Communications that provides News, Chat and FTP.
Fidelio presently has the following functionality:
- Server and Tracker Bookmarks
- Tracker support
- Multiple simultaneous connections to different servers.
- Upload and resumable download - not yet complete file management.
- Userlist and messages.
- Large icon support.
- Public Chat.
- News v1.2 and v1.5 (reading and posting).
- Kick/Ban support (untested)
- Private messages (with ignore)
Version 1.0 of fidelio will certainly NOT have (not coded by me, at least):
- User account management
- News management
- Server state management
These items just don't interest me. If somebody else wants to do them, I'll merge the code.
The culprit is abas@aix.meng.auth.gr. Send mail, for flames will end up
compressed to oblivion in /dev/null.
Sources
The current version is 0.9.1 (ChangeLog).
The source tarball is available under the
General Public Licence here:
fidelio-0.9.1.tar.gz.
Prerequisite software is:
- glibc2
- pthreads
- GTK+ 1.2
- GNOME 1.0.x
Also note that this code will only compile and run on 32-bit machines with 4-byte integer alignment and 4-byte pointers.
Read the README of the tarball for instructions, it is more up-to-date.
