ChitChat

P2P Instant Messaging app written in Python and Qt

WARNING

It is very very alpha right now. Many features don't yet work.

Issues:

• Windows broadcast packet sending seems different. I am hacking it locally and sending it to 127.0.0.1 instead of 255.255.255.255 but I am not sure why 255 doesn't work on windows.
• Sending the message to another user hasn't been tested it. There were some heavy api changes in the networking layer so I assume that it probably won't work.

Future Features:

• Send parts of nukescripts/extra mimedata to the other person.
• Emojis/gifs
• Nicer UI
• timestamped messages
• Remote user's messages should be right justified.
• Refresh should happen passively every 1min or so.
• Refresh should remove uses that are no longer around.
• Build it into a Qt panel for Nuke or Maya.
