Toxic is a Tox-based instant messenging client which formerly resided in the Tox core repository, and is now available as a standalone application.

Compile it yourself
If you don't like installation methods listed above, you can still download precompiled binaries from jenkins:
- Linux 32 bit
- Linux 64 bit
Linux ARMv6CURRENTLY DISABLED
Running Toxic for the first time creates an empty file called toxic.conf in your home configuration directory ("~/.config/tox" for Linux users). Adding options to this file allows you to enable auto-logging, change the time format (12/24 hour), and much more. You can view our example config file here.
If your default prefix is "/usr/local" and you receive the following:
error while loading shared libraries: libtoxcore.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
you can attempt to correct it by running sudo ldconfig
. If that doesn't work, run:
echo '/usr/local/lib/' | sudo tee -a /etc/ld.so.conf.d/locallib.conf
sudo ldconfig
