Description
This is the portable OTR Messaging Library, as well as the toolkit to help you forge messages.
Off-the-Record (OTR) Messaging allows you to have private conversations over instant messaging by providing:
Encryption No one else can read your instant messages. Authentication You are assured the correspondent is who you think it is. Deniability The messages you send do not have digital signatures that are checkable by a third party. Anyone can forge messages after a conversation to make them look like they came from you. However, during a conversation, your correspondent is assured the messages he sees are authentic and unmodified. Perfect forward secrecy If you lose control of your private keys, no previous conversation is compromised.
