NAME
----
toxic - CLI client for Tox

SYNOPSIS
--------
*toxic* [-f 'data-file'] [-x] [-4] [-c 'config-file'] [-n 'nodes-file'] [-h]

DESCRIPTION
-----------
toxic is an ncurses-based instant messaging client for Tox which formerly
resided in the Tox core repository, and is now available as a standalone
application.

OPTIONS
-------
-4, --ipv4::
    Force IPv4 connection

-b, --debug::
    Enable stderr for debugging. Redirect output to
    avoid breaking the curses interface and better capture messages.

-c, --config config-file::
    Use specified 'config-file' instead of '~/.config/tox/toxic.conf'

-d, --default-locale::
    Use default locale

-e, --encrypt-data::
    Encrypt an unencrypted data file. An error will occur if this option
    is used with an encrypted data file.

-f, --file data-file::
    Use specified 'data-file' instead of '~/.config/tox/data'

-h, --help::
    Show help message

-n, --nodes nodes-file::
    Use specified 'nodes-file' for DHT bootstrap nodes, instead of
    '{datadir}/DHTnodes'

-o, --noconnect::
    Do not connect to the DHT network

-p, --SOCKS5-proxy::
    Use a SOCKS5 proxy: Requires [IP] [port]

-P, --HTTP-proxy::
    Use a HTTP proxy: Requires [IP] [port]

-r, --dnslist::
    Use specified DNSservers file

-t, --force-tcp::
    Force TCP connection (use this with proxies)

-u, --unencrypt-data::
    Unencrypt a data file. A warning will appear if this option is used
    with a data file that is already unencrypted.

FILES
-----
{datadir}/DHTnodes::
    Default list of DHT bootstrap nodes.

~/.config/tox/data::
    Savestate which contains your personal info (nickname, Tox ID, contacts,
    etc)

~/.config/tox/toxic.conf::
    Configuration file. See *toxic.conf*(5) for more details.

{datadir}/toxic.conf.example::
