Description:
 Spyrit is a MUSH/MUCK/MOO client written in
Python using the Qt toolkit. It aims to be a
pleasant, extensible, polished product, and to
support all three major platforms.

This is a beta version, and you will probably not
find it very feature complete yet. Some important
features are still missing, although a lot of work
has gone into ensuring that the code's core is
solid and dependable, in order to make the
upcoming addition of features quick and
straightforward. Stay tuned!

In order to run this software, you will need
Python 2.4 or later; Qt 4.2 or later; and the
PyQt4 bindings, with sip 4.5.

The Sourceforge download page also provides
experimental binaries which are designed to work
without the above dependencies.

The software has not yet been tested on Mac OS X,
but should work there so long as the dependencies
listed above are met. It does work nicely on
Windows.


If you have Python 2.4, just simply download and
run the file 'spyrit-0.2-py2.4.py' to execute the
software; it is magically packaged so as to
require no installation. If you have Python 2.5,
use the file 'spyrit-0.2-py2.5.py'.

In either case you can also download the source
tarball and simply run its 'spyrit.py' executable.

Changelog:
 v0.2:
 - SSL connections where supported;
 - ANSI parsing and formatting;
 - Telnet codes parsing;
 - Unlimited input history;
 - Plus various minor improvements and speedups.

v0.1b: Minor release that relaxes the dependency
on SIP 4.5.1, which (K)Ubuntu Stable doesn't
package yet.
