What is Hextor?
Hextor is an IRC client for privacy concerned people. If you don't know what IRC is; you should go and learn about IRC first and decide if that is even a communications medium you would want to use. See http://irchelp.org/ for information about other IRC software and IRC in general. If you don't know what things like Tor are, you should go and learn about Tor first. See https://tor-project.org/ for information about Tor.
Why Hextor?
Hextor is being made because most IRC clients are confusing and unweildly for new and even experienced IRC users to setup trustworthy channels of online communication.
