FiSHy 0.3.0

FiSHy is a plugin for Colloquy, providing Blowfish encryption support. You can encrypt messages you send to chat rooms or queries, and decrypt incoming messages. It also supports automatic Diffie-Hellmann key-exchanges for queries, so you can share channel-keys securely.

FiSHy is designed to saves keys in the Keychain, and by using a simple DragnDrop install. It is compatible with FiSH, mIRCryption and Dirt. It is a Universal Binary and works on any Mac running OS X 10.4

FiSHy uses the Blowfish and Key-Exchange engine from Dirt (http://dirtirc.sourceforge.net/), an encrypting IRC proxy. So if FiSHy doesnt work for you, or you want to use another client, please check out Dirt.

FiSHy differentiates between channels and nicknames for which encryption is enabled, and others for which it is disabled.

Every new channel/nickname is set to have encryption disabled per default. If you receive a clear-text message in a channel/query for which encryption is enabled, you will be warned.

Vice-versa, encrypted messages received in a channel/query for which encryption is disabled will be marked. If you send a message to an encrypted channel/query, and encryption fails for some reason, the message wont be sent, and you will be informed about this. The message will appear locally to you, though.
