Usage

  1. Start a session with a user:

    /query nick
    /otr start
    

    If this is your first time it may take a while to generate a key.

  2. Authenticate this user:

    At this point you need to verify this is the person you think it is.

    • If you know their fingerprint and it is correct:

       /otr trust
      
    • If you have previously agreed on a shared secret:

       /otr auth <shared secret>
      
    • If you have neither of these:

       /otr authq <question> <answer>
      
  3. Start chatting:

    Everything should be secure at this point. When you are done:

    /otr finish
