💅 eXosip2_readme(3) — the glow-up README ✨

Okay so bestie, welcome to the manual page for eXosip2 — that's the eXtended osip Library, and honestly? It's iconic. Let me walk you through it.

Here's the vibe check on the project first, no gatekeeping:

🌸 NAME 🌸

So eXosip is a GPL library that extends the capability of the oSIP library, fr fr. Its whole main character energy is implementing a simple high layer API to control SIP (rfc3261) for sessions establishements and common extensions.

This eXtended library should provide an API for call management, messaging, presence features and everything you need with SIP. The range? Unmatched.

It's flexible, interoperable, stable and portable! 💖

📜 Other license: 📜

Okay so there's another license situation, and it's giving "read the fine print, bestie." Here it is, src/inet_ntop.c, entirely as-is:

No cap, keep that notice in all copies. 💀

🎀 Installation procedure: 🎀

The program is known to run on linux, ios, android, windows, unix, macosx, windows mobile... might work on any system with libc! Slay, portability.

You should install c-ares before for much better DNS management! Like, do it. http://c-ares.haxx.se

Then run these, exactly:

$> ./configure
$> make
$> sudo make install

That's it. Obsessed. 🦋
