To check out the sources through subversion you will need a subversion
client: http://subversion.tigris.orgTo get the sources with the command line client you can use the following command:
svn co http://yourhell.com/svn/xfirelib/trunk/xfirelib
Compile
change into the xfirelib directory and
use the command 'jam' to compile the sources. Afterwards you can try the test client:
the test client is just a small command line client which we have used to test
the xfirelib. After you started the xfirelibtest you can type e.g. 'help' to
get a list of available commands. or 'buddylist' to get a list of all your buddies.
