        What's this?
        ------------
        
        Go to `minilock.io <https://minilock.io>`__ to learn more about
        miniLock. *deadlock* is an implementation of the miniLock protocol, and
        as such it is compatible with miniLock. You can send and receive files
        from people using miniLock without having to install Chrome (closed
        source, spyware-rich browser) or Chromium (technically open source but
        by-default-still-pretty-invasive browser).
        
        In addition to the base function of sending and receiving miniLock'd
        files, which ought to be secure against snooping eyes on the wire and to
        provide you and your loved/liked/other ones with a measure of deserved
        human privacy, *deadlock* comes with some other features you might like:
        
        -  Auto-zipping of directories when encrypting, making it easy to send
           folders to friends.
        -  Fast underlying C implementations of core miniLock algorithms.
        -  Written for ease of use as a Python module, not only as a standalone
           application.
        -  No browser, easily scripted, automated or pipelined.
        -  "Petnames" allowing you to save IDs as easily-memorable friend names
           or emails
        -  *Highly insecure* private key storage, allowing trivial
           encryption/decryption, including iterating through all local private
           keys and attempting decryption with each.
        -  Early features for throwaway ultra-high-security addresses.
        -  Early features for "vanity" addresses starting or ending in a chosen
           word (warning: may take until heat-death of the universe)
        
        How do I install/use this?
        --------------------------
        
        *deadlock* is, at present, a Terminal only application. The best way to
        install it is to use pip:
        
        ::
        
            sudo pip install deadlock
        
        ..provided that you have the necessary system-level dependencies (C
        compiler and supporting libraries), this ought to pull in the required
        cryptographic modules from PyPI and build them, then install *deadlock*.
        
        Once installed, *deadlock* will be available as a Python module and also
        as a script, ``deadlock``. Try ``deadlock --help`` for guidance on
        usage.
        
        *deadlock* will probably work on any platform with a C compiler for the
        required modules, but I have no interest in supporting closed,
        spyware-rich operating systems like WinMac, so don't ask. If it doesn't
        work on those platforms, then you can always fix it and send me a pull
        request.
        
        Who do I contact for support or to complain?
        --------------------------------------------
        
        Nobody. This software is provided without warranty of any kind. It
        works, for me, and I'm pretty sure it's secure, but I'm not going to
        certify it as such and you shouldn't use it if you really need security
        to protect you from people with the means and motive to harm or imprison
        you.
