Powerful Tox client that tries to follow the Tox UI mockup while running on all major systems.
This GUI uses code from @nurupo'tos ProjectTox-Qt-GUI, in particular the "Core" Toxcore wrapper.
However, it is not a fork.

• One to one chat with friends
• Group chats
• File transfers, with previewing of images
• Audio calls
• Video calls (alpha)
• Tox DNS
• Translations in various languages

This client runs on Windows, Linux and Mac natively, but is not build regularly for Linux
Linux users will have to compile the source code themselves if they want the latest updates.

Note that the Linux download has not been tested and may not be up to date.

To compile, first clone or download the qTox repository and open a terminal in the qTox folder. Then run the script bootstrap.sh (for Linux and Mac) or bootsrap.bat (for Windows) to download an up-to-date toxcore. And finally run the commands "qmake" and "make" to start building qTox.

Since https://github.com/ReDetection/homebrew-qtox you can easily install qtox with homebrew

brew install --HEAD ReDetection/qtox/qtox

This guide is intended for people who wish to use an existing or new ProjectTox-Core installation separate to the bundled installation with qTox, if you do not wish to use a separate installation you can skip to the section titled 'Final Steps'.

Installation on OSX, isn't quite straight forward, here is a quick guide on how to install;

The first thing you need to do is install ProjectTox-Core with a/v support. Refer to the INSTALL guide in the ProjectTox-Core github repo.

Next you need to download QtTools (http://qt-project.org/downloads), at the time of writing this is at version 5.3.0. Make sure you deselect all the unnecessary components from the 5.3 checkbox (iOS/Android libs) otherwise you will end up with a very large download.

Once that is installed you will most likely need to set the path for qmake. To do this, open up terminal and paste in the following;

export PATH=/location/to/qmake/binary:$PATH

For myself, the qmake binary was located in /Users/mouseym/Qt/5.3/clang_64/bin/.

This is not a permanent change, it will revert when you close the terminal window, to add it permanently you will need to add echo the above line to your .profile/.bash_profile.

Once this is installed, do the following;

git clone https://github.com/tux3/qTox
cd toxgui
qmake

Now, we need to create a symlink to /usr/local/lib/ and /usr/local/include/

mkdir -p $HOME/qTox/libs
sudo ln -s /usr/local/lib $HOME/qTox/libs/lib
sudo ln -s /usr/local/include  $HOME/qTox/libs/include

The final step is to run

make

in the qTox directory, or if you are using the bundled tox core installation, you can use

./bootstrap.sh

Assuming all went well you should now have a qTox.app file within the directory. Double click and it should open!
