1 Introduction
══════════════

  Tinmop is an opinionated client for Mastodon (or Pleroma using the
  mastodon API). It offer a distraction free terminal interface.

  The name is a recursive acronym: "Tinmop Is Not Mutt or Pine".  The
  older of us can remember that, in turn, Pine is an acronym as well:
  "Pine Is Not Elm" and, finally, Elm means (according to Wikipedia):
  "Electronic Mail".


2 Peculiar Features
═══════════════════

  • tree structure of messages;
  • subscriptions of hashtag;
  • encrypted direct message (but see 11);
  • no mentions notification, no knowlege of when or who favourited your
    status;
  • No blocking or muting, the client can be configured to ignore a list
    of accounts.

4 Install
═════════

  1. optional step needed only if you have not already the configure
     script, you will need `autotools' for that.

     ┌────
     │ $ autoreconf -fiv
     └────

  2. run `configure' and resolve the missing dependencies (if any)

     ┌────
     │ $ ./configure
     └────

  3. the script `quick-quicklisp.sh' will download and install the
     library manager and the library on your home dir.

     ┌────
     │ $ ./quick_quicklisp.sh
     └────

     This step is optional if you have already installed quicklisp, in
     this case just load the [dependencies] using the client installed
     on your computer.

  4. clone in `$HOME/quicklisp/local-projects/' the latest version of
     tooter, a library to access mastodon API.

     This step is temporary as this version will get into quicklisp
     eventually.
     ┌────
     │ $ cd $HOME/quicklisp/local-projects/
     │ $ git clone https://github.com/Shinmera/tooter.git
     └────

  5. clone in `$HOME/quicklisp/local-projects/' the latest version of
     croatoan, a library to wrap the ncurses TUI library.

     This step is temporary as this version will get into quicklisp
     eventually.
     ┌────
     │ $ cd $HOME/quicklisp/local-projects/
     │ $ git clone https://github.com/McParen/croatoan.git
     └────

  6. build the executable:

     ┌────
     │ $ make

11 FAQ
══════

  • are the encrypted messages secure?

    No. First only a symmetric encryption scheme is implemented (so
    there is a problem of secure key exchanging). Moreover i am not a
    crypto expert and probably i made something wrong. Note that i am
    not claiming that the algorithm (AES256) or the implementation of
    such encrypting algorithm is flawed but that, likely, is flawed the
    code i wrote to use the crypto library in this software.

    So, please do not consider the encrypted message secure at all.

═════════════════

  My deep thanks to the folks that provided us with wonderful SBCL and
  Common lisp libraries.

  In particular i want to thanks the authors of the libraries Croatoan
  and Tooter for their help when I started to develop this program.

  There are more people i borrowed code and data from, they are
  mentioned in the file LINCENSES.org

  This program is was born also with the help of CCCP: "Collettivo
  Computer Club Palermo".
