LeechCraft is a free opensource cross-platform modular live environment.
LeechCraft allows one to browse the web, chat in IM via XMPP, IRC, MSN

BitTorrent, FTP, HTTP and ADC/NMDC, automatically download, play or
stream podcasts (and other media files) and much more.
LeechCraft is a (C++ and Qt-based) modular live environment: a kind
of a desktop environment with a focus on the actual applications for
some typical desktop tasks and their interoperation. For instance,
LeechCraft allows one to:
* browse the web;
* chat via XMPP, IRC, Tox and a bunch of other protocols;
* read RSS feeds;
* listen to music in an Amarok-like audio player;
* view documents in PDF, FB2 and other formats;
* download BitTorrent files;
* share files via cloud;
* post to blogs;
* and much more.

Plugins are easily added and integrated with each other with no effort.
Each function is provided by a separate module which can be omitted at build
or run time if not needed.
