Introduction:

=============

Loudmouth is a lightweight and easy-to-use C library for programming with the

Jabber protocol. It's designed to be easy to get started with and yet

extensible to let you do anything the Jabber protocol allows.

The goal is to fully support Linux, *BSD, Mac OSX and Windows. It has

currently only been tested on Linux (Red Hat 8.0, Debian Unstable) and FreeBSD

that I know of. If someone with access to other machines can provide

feedback I would be most grateful.

Requirements:

=============

Glib >= 2.0:

ftp://ftp.gtk.org/pub/gtk/v2.2/

gtk-doc (optional, if you want documentation built):

ftp://ftp.gnome.org/pub/GNOME/sources/gtk-doc/1.0

If you want SSL-support you'll also need:

GnuTLS >= 1.0.0might have to be built with '--with-included-libtasn1')

Building:

=========

./configure --prefix=

make

make install

Debugging:

==========

You can get debug information printed to STDOUT by using the environment 

variable LM_DEBUG.

export LM_DEBUG=<keyword>

Where keyword is one or more (separated by :) of the following:

* "NET": Shows all the data sent over the network.

* "PARSER": Shows debug output from the parser.

* "VERBOSE": Shows various verbose output.

* "ALL": Enables all output.
