== DTELLA README ==
(The basic important stuff!)
= Welcome =
If you run into any roadblocks, you can go to http://dtella.org and
click [IRC] to chat with all the Dtella users from your browser.
Additionally there are many resources at: http://wiki.dtella.org
= Step 1: Get a Client =
When you start Dtella, it just runs invisibly in the background.
In order to accomplish anything useful, you'll have to connect to it
with a DC client. Listed below are the most common clients for each
supported operating system:
Windows:
DC++ http://www.dcpp.net/
OS X:
Shakespeer http://shakespeer.bzero.se/
Linux:
LinuxDC++ http://linuxdcpp.berlios.de
= Step 2: Connection Information =
Create a favorite hub in DC++ with these options:
-> Name: Dtella
-> Address: 127.0.0.1:7314
= Step 3: Port Forwards & Firewalls =
Dtella needs a UDP port for peer communication, and DC++ needs
a TCP port for file transfers. If you have a firewall or router
that's blocking ports, then check out these guides:

= Step 4: Share =
Once you're on, you'll have to share some files unless you just
want to chat. In DC++, go here to get started:
File > Settings > Sharing
= Getting Help within Dtella =
Type !help into the main chat to see a list of Dtella commands.
