otrtool aims to provide an open source tool to deal with otrkey-files from
onlinetvrecorder.com. It can decrypt them using keys it fetches from OTR's
servers while authenticating with user-supplied login credentials.
== DEPENDENCIES ==
* libcurl / curl for the server request
== BUILDING ==
* execute `make` (or `gmake` where GNU Make is not the default)
* Copy the following files to the places they belong:
./otrtool the main binary
./otrtool.1.gz the gzip'ed manpage
./LICENSE the (rights waiver) license
* `make install` will install the binary and the manpage under /usr/local.
Use `make install PREFIX=...` to install elsewhere.
* If you didn't install libcurl in the usual place,
specify where the headers and libraries are:
`CFLAGS="-I/path/to/include" LDFLAGS="-L/path/to/lib" make`
== PORTABILITY ==
* otrtool is developed and tested primarily under GNU/Linux.
If it turns out not to be portable to your unix-like operating system
of choice, please file a bug report.
* The Makefile is not portable and relies on GNU Make features.

== CONTACT ==
E-Mail: eshrdlu/AT/yandex/DOT/com (de, en)
== REPORTING BUGS ==
For bug reports please do NOT run otrtool with the "-v"-option because it
outputs personal data like your email/password, and/or hashes of them.
== VERSION NUMBERS ==
The version numbers follow the scheme major.minor.bugfixes.
This means that as long as /bugfixes/ increases the software gets more stable.
/Major/ is only incremented on great architectural changes.
== HISTORY ==
In April, 2010, eddy14 reverse-engineered the otrkey-file-format and OTRs
Client-Server-protocol. The blog post describing his work (German):

He also wrote a proof-of-concept tool to decrypt OTRKEYs. PyroPeter rewrote
it in C and without licensing issues.
