Introducing a web-key: Friends fetching a single website URL for storing in / browsing from own URL database

URL
(e.g. recieved in chat window) (opt.: -> OpenVPN-Protocol)
-> Spot-Entry -> ... Echo ... -> Spot-Exit
(opt.: -> OpenVPN-Protocol) &
->URL insertation to Spot websearch DB & browsing html from websearch DB or as PDF

Ideally, as automatted process for URLs pasted in a chat window: "twin-surfing", resp. "dialogue browsing" or a "converted browse":

Me: URL
You: "Returned: Dialogue Browse" (-> browse localhost URL entry).

Instead of a new web-key, the chat-key can also send it over the url-key, if a "twin-key status" of both meets the settings and the status bar indicates "dialogue browsing" as enabled (both keys present and tied to each other;

respective: at least one URL-Key is present and any chat-URL-request sends the site to all given URL-Keys

• hence the concept is simple: any URL pasted in chat is added to the local database of the requester,

the rest is magic: the URL hash at the requester`s side is fetched from local database and displayed over a swapping chat-link ("converted-link") to be clicked, coming in over the URL-key from the friend).

I'm curious about your project, but I really do not understand what it does yet.

"Spot-On is an interstellar dolphin-propelled science vessel sailing on the winds of chaos. Now with Ultra StarBeams!"

It's a search engine, email and chat client?

This is a separate issue, but if you also create GoldBug, could you host that on GitHub or GitLab, too? SourceForge is a pain to read through.

Hello,

where to connect to a public chat server?

It could be helpful if users/clients can add an .onion-address and a Tor bootstrapper IP-address to get to a central Tor hidden server instance from the project side - or could the functionality be added to Apache or Nginx to work with this chat system?

The GUI interface is not connected to the Spot-On kernel:

A UI error (No functional TLS backend was found) occurred.

A UI error (QSslSocket::connectToHostEncrypted: TLS initialization failed) occurred.

spoton::slotKernelSocketError(): socket error (TLS initialization failed).

Generating SSL/TLS 2048 Bit Kernel Socket credentials is repeated and repeated.

Probably the Win-32-Version needs to be referred:

"Hello

I am grateful for the great tool Spot-on. I am attempting to intsall on Ubuntu 20 and I am facing some challenges. I hope you will direct me in the right direction.

The problem I am facing are related to libgpgme11.

I am doing it wrong but how to fix this problem ?

Regards

Umer

Grateful for your help"

I cannot find any documentation on Spot-On or Echo anywhere. If it exists, it should be linked prominently from the project website. If it doesn't exist, it should.

Merging RSS also into a Buzz:

An to Spot-On added RSS-feed automatically creates with the full RSS-Feed-URL - for name, hash and salt - a Buzz-Channel, e.g.:

RSS-Feed: https://github.com/textbrowser.atom

Buzz-Name: https://github.com/textbrowser.atom
Buzz-Salt: https://github.com/textbrowser.atom
Buzz-Hash: https://github.com/textbrowser.atom

The user instance posts each RSS-URL (plus Title as prefix) also into the referring Buzz-room.

As several users can create that and post URLs over RSS into the referring Buzz-room, a congestion control for URLs in that Buzz-room displays an URL only once.

The users instance shares the room to all connected nodes, which can join such a public buzz - as they also share the RSS-Buzz-Roomlist with all further nodes. Alternatively: the RSS-Buzz-Room-List of an instance is shared over the URL-Key only to friends.

Telegram now added RSS to create and search for (read only) channels for news.
Spot-On enables with this RSS+Buzz request "News" + "Chat about news".

(opt. extension: One instance specific (non-shared) Master-Buzz aggregates (like a log-file) all lines of all Buzz Channels in time order. Smoke as mobile app can display the master buzz log of one specific (remote) Spot-On-instance for mobile monitoring.)

adding a PDF-ebook insertation method with bibliographic description data
for Spot-On`s search tab/database to add ebooks/PDFs e.g. from:

Please define this program in a few sentences.

From the documentation

Spot-On is a dolphin-propelled science project. The software is composed of two separate applications, a multitasking kernel and an operator interface. The two applications are written in C++ and require the Qt framework as well as an assortment of libraries. Qt versions Qt 5.x are supported. Spot-On is available on FreeBSD, Linux, OS X, OS/2, and Windows. In addition to supporting the x86 and x86-64 architectures, ARM, PowerPC, and SPARC are supported without any special provisions. Qt version 4.8.7 may be functional although it is not supported.

Please note that the Echo algorithm and its name are not derived from Ernest J. H. Chang's 1982 Echo Algorithms: Depth Parallel Operations on General Graphs paper.

Add support for Matrix protocol. For example a bridge between Echo and Matrix. Here is corresponding issue in Matrix wishlist: turt2live/matrix-wishlist#151.
