Nuntius is a program for the direct communication between computers (on
heterogeneous platforms, also), by sending messages and files through a chat.
Communication are made through USB or RS-232 cables. This program is born to
be used in conjunction with LoRa devices (Long Range), who is a physical
proprietary radio communication technique based on spread spectrum modulation.
By using these devices, is possible to communicate wireless with other users
(who owns LoRa devices also) at kilometers of distance. This can be useful in
several cases:

- To communicate in emergency situations, if an Internet connection normally
available is out of service
- To communicate in zones not covered by the mobile network
- For private communications, avoiding the Internet's dangers

Communication with LoRa devices is often slow, but Nuntius is born to give an
alternative connection, not necessarly at high performance, in situations
where the more used  communication technologies doesn't work.

A secondary use of this program is as terminal program, to an hardware device
or another computer for debugging purposes.
