This project implements two things should eventually be split into two separate projects: A client API for Mastodon, and a user interface based on CLIM.
I’m currently using the CLIM client to learn how it works, as well as a testbed for the API part.
Currently the client is not ready for real use, but if anyone is interested to try it, this is how you connect to an instance:
- Add the instance to the client using the
Add Instance
command - List the instances using the
List Instances
command - Type the
Authenticate
command. This will display 3 input fields - In the first, enter the instance by clicking on the name that was displayed when listing the instances. Typing the name is not possible since there is no input translator from a string to an instance.
- Enter the username in the second field.
- Enter the password in the third field.
At this point, the other commands should work properly.
