SILC Toolkit is a package intended for software developers who would like to develope their own SILC based applications or help in the development of the SILC. The Toolkit includes SILC Protocol Core library, SILC Crypto library, SILC Key Exchange (SKE) library, SILC Math library, SILC Modules (SIM) library, SILC Utility library, SILC Client library and few other libraries.

They are not actually. The SILC Client and SILC Server code is distributed in SILC Toolkit merely as example code for how to use the SILC Toolkit. The SILC Client and SILC Server distirbutions may include different code than what is found in the SILC Toolkit distribution. You should not use the client and server found in SILC Toolkit in production environment, but treat them merely as example applications.

Yes, the reference manual which provides full reference to the libraries and programming guide is available in the SILC Toolkit package as HTML package. The online version of the manual is also available on the silcnet.org website at the Software Manuals page.

Yes, of course. You however must be careful when you mix C and C++ code. The SILC Toolkit is pure ANSI C and there are some issues when calling C routines from C++ code. Remember to include only "silcincludes.h" and "silcclient.h" (and "silversion.h") header files from the Toolkit. Any other header file will not work with C++ application, and you will end up having problems at linking time. See also these outside links for more information C++ FAQ Lite and Tech Talk About C++.

The SILC was developed by Pekka Riikonen in Finland. He also started the SILC project that now coordinates the SILC development. He has worked for years in the field of security, for example several years at the SSH Communications Security Corporation as Chief Engineer with responsibilities in IPSEC core development. The SILC Project consists of several volunteers who maintain the SILC Network, its routers and servers. Volunteers who provide the silcnet.

SILC stands for Secure Internet Live Conferencing. SILC is very much the same as IRC with the major difference being that all conversations are encrypted and much more secure then IRC. Wikipedia on SILC

Reading this FAQ is a good start, but the user's manual is really the place to begin learning in earnest. API documentation for all classes and methods in the toolkit is also available. Perhaps the most useful, however, is to investigate and interact with the various demonstration applications included with the toolkit. They are located in the "demos" folder of the toolkit distribution. Feel free to copy these demos and play with various modifications to get a feel of the space of possibilities.

This toolkit is an easy-to-use resource for health care organizations to implement a systematic method of collecting race, ethnicity, and primary language data.

The SILC server is available for free download from the silcnet.org web page. We are not aware of any other SILC server implementations, so far.

The official SILC client is available for free download from the silcnet.org web page. There are also several independent projects working with the SILC Toolkit to come up with various other clients, mostly GUI clients. See our links page for links to other clients.

Question that is justified no doubt of that. SILC was not started to become a replacement for IRC. SILC was something that didn't exist in 1996 or even today except that SILC is now released. However, I did check out the IRC3 project in 1997 when I started coding and planning the SILC protocol. But, IRC3 is problematic. Why? Because it still doesn't exist. The project is almost at the same spot where it was in 1997 when I checked it out. And it was old project back then as well.

The first Outreach ToolKit your club will receive is "Shadows & Silhouettes: Phases, Eclipses, and Transits". This ToolKit covers topics you can address during that shadowy time just before and just after sunset. It also covers those special events enhanced by views through telescopes and binoculars: eclipses and transits. The significance of transits in NASA's search for habitable planets begins with the Kepler Mission.

The Blocker Toolkit is available immediately in the Microsoft Download Center. Microsoft encourages IT administrators who want full control over the deployment of updates to their systems to use Windows Server Update Services (WSUS), a free tool for users of Windows Server, or the more advanced configuration management tool Systems Management Server 2003 (SMS).

The topology of the SILC network includes SILC routers and the SILC servers (and SILC clients of course). Normal SILC server does not have direct connections with other SILC servers. They connect directly to the SILC router. SILC Routers may have several server connections and they may connect to several SILC routers. The SILC routers are the servers in the network that know everything about everything.

There has been others developing their own implementations of the SILC protocol as well. See our links page for links to those projects.

The codebase Inkscape inherited from Sodipodi was C/Gtk based. There is an ongoing effort to convert the codebase to C++/Gtkmm. The ultimate goal is to simplify the code and make it more maintainable. We invite you to join us. Just don't mention Qt. :)

In interactions with product professionals within IBM and in the business partner community, it became clear there was a need for a single point of reference to aggregate these technologies and demonstrate how they work together. This project, the IBM Autonomic Computing Toolkit, is such an aggregation vehicle.

The toolkit is designed to answer questions about race, ethnicity, and primary language data collection. It provides the answers to the “how to” questions and addresses concerns (legal, privacy) about data collection.

The Web Toolkit contains everything you need to start your own business on the Internet. It's your road map to success.

Professor Rosabeth Moss Kanter has distilled her extensive writings on leadership, innovation and change management into 26 topic areas that form the main body of the Toolkit.These topic areas are divided into three major sections: the Change Wheel, Change Masters, and Change Fundamentals. (There is also a major section called Background Materials, which contains additional tools not directly linked to a core section, or tools relevant to your specific organization.

The precise term is SIM Application Toolkit (SAT), but we use the more common abbreviation of SIM Toolkit (STK). It refers to the technology used to store and run applications on the SIM card and describes how such applications must communicate with mobile equipment (phone) - as defined by the ETSI (European Telecommunications Standard Institute) standard: GSM 11.14. Historically, it is the oldest and the most widespread technology for applications on mobile phones.

The SIM Toolkit offers enhanced functionality for the mobile user interface - from displaying data and text insertion to adding menus. But the real strength lies in the SMS handling, location information and in general lower level system functions. SIM Toolkits can provide many more functions to make the most out of any phone e.g. timers, networking or pictures. All they need are the applications to be written that exploit them.

The focus of the toolkit is to ensure that puppy owners get the right information from the moment they bring their new puppy home. Socialization and Prevention focused exercises is what it is all about!

The toolkit is FUN, easy-to-use and has lots of step-by-step photos. Our comprehensive toolkit includes colorful booklets, pocket guides, a social schedule and a developmental poster.

The BCH Toolkit is an informative and instructional tool to assist interested users with the use of the BCH. It is being produced in paper, CD-ROM and web formats, and is available online through the central portal of the BCH. The tool kit also includes interoperability standards and guidelines for the BCH database to facilitate exchange of information with existing international, regional or national databases.
