The Circle ---------- The Circle is a decentralized file sharing application based around the idea of a decentralized hashtable. The Circle has been tested on Linux and Windows, but should work on any Unix variant if the appropriate libraries are installed. To run the Circle you will need: * Python 2.2 or higher * GTK+ 2 * Python-GTK for GTK+ 2, version >= 2.2 Note: depending on distributions, this package is called pygtk or pygtk2. Note: make sure that you use compatible versions of Python and pygtk. * Optionally, Python-GNOME * Optionally: The Pyogg and Pyvorbis packages: see http://www.andrewchatham.com/pyogg/ Linux users should be able to install these from their Linux distribution, and all of these are also available under Windows (see thecircle.org.au for links). To install Circle under Linux, type: python setup.py install To start Circle type: circle This will start both the daemon and the GUI. To start only the daemon, type: circle start To stop the daemon, type: circle stop To query the daemon, type: circle status Type "circle help" for more options. It is possible to install multiple versions of Python on some systems, such as Debian and Red Hat. For example, you may have installed both Python 1.5 and Python 2.1. For some reason, in this case most systems seem to default to 1.5 when you run Python. You can remove the old version, or force The Circle to use the later version. For example: python2.1 setup.py install BSD users: The default OpenBSD (and possibly other BSDs) packet filter configuration uses a stateful UDP filter rule that The Circle finds intensely confusing -- you will appear to others to disappear and reappear on the network randomly. See circlelib/getting_started.html for instructions on fixing this.
