    Vidalia is a cross-platform graphical controller for the
    <a href="<page index>">Tor</a> software, built using the <a
    href="http://qt.nokia.com/">Qt</a> framework. Vidalia runs on most
    platforms supported by Qt 4.3 or later, including Microsoft Windows,
    Apple OS X, and Linux or other Unix variants using the X11 window
    system. It was originally written by Matt Edman, and is currently
    maintained by Tomás Touceda.
    </p>
    <p>
    Vidalia lets you start and stop Tor, see how much bandwidth you are
    consuming, see how many circuits you currently have active, see where
    these circuits are connected on a global map, view messages from
    Tor about its progress and current state, and let you configure your
    Tor client, bridge, or relay with a simple interface.  Included in
    Vidalia is an extensive help system which helps you understand all of
    the options available to you.  All of these features are translated
    into a large number of languages.

    Vidalia is always looking for volunteers that want to help in development.
    To start you should first take a look at the
