## Running

Start a Syndicate broker (such as
[this one](https://git.syndicate-lang.org/syndicate-rs)) in one window.

Find the line of broker output giving the root capability:

    ... rootcap=<ref {oid: "syndicate" sig: #x"69ca300c1dbfa08fba692102dd82311a"}> ...

Then, run [chat.py](chat.py) several times in several separate windows:

    python chat.py \
        --address '<tcp "localhost" 8001>' \
        --cap '<ref {oid: "syndicate" sig: #x"69ca300c1dbfa08fba692102dd82311a"}>'
