USE AT YOUR OWN RISK
When I discovered the Matrix Chat Protocol, I wanted to be able to use it on the commandline.
This is how far I have come.
Requirements
You need to have the following packages installed:- autoconf-2.65 or newer
- automake-1.16 or newer
- json-c 0.18 or newer
- libcurl 8.16.0 or newer
- sqlite3 3.50.4 or newer
- ncurses 6.4.20230826 or newer
Installation
To install, download the package from below.Then run
tar xvfj nmatrixc_0.06.tar.bz2 cd nmatrixc_0.06.tar.bz2 ./configure make doas make installYou might have to do
export AUTOCONF_VERSION=2.65 export AUTOMAKE_VERSION=1.17 autoreconfbefore.
ON LINUX
If you want to compile it on Linux, you WILL have to rerun autoreconfautoreconf
Running
Once it is installed, you can start chatting on a matrix server where you are already registered.You need to specify the name of the matrix server and the name of a database file as command line parameters:
nmatrixc.app https://matrix.example.org/ matrixexampleorg.db
Known problems
- VERY LIMITED FEATURES: Only reading and writing to unencrypted rooms works
- MESSAGES STAY ON FOREVER: If somebody retracts a message, it is still visible.

Autotools are still annoying, but this release has a lot more eye-candy to it. Check it out! Oh, and did I mention that I am still looking for an ANSI ARTist? The more eye-candy, the better.

Yes, the second release in one day... The previous one had some racing conditions which led to some nasty crashes. Sorry about that....

This release can be used to chat on MSC3824 compatible servers. Just copy and paste the generated URL into a browser window, and copy and paste the reply code after logging in.
