# Tor GNOME Shell Extension
Switch your "Tor identity" (the tunnel used by future connections) by
double-clicking the Tor icon in the GNOME Shell panel.
Switch your "Tor identity" (the tunnel used by future connections) via an onion
button in the GNOME Shell panel.
Currently only supports authentication via auth cookie.
Suppose beta status.
This extension has beta status.
## TODO
* Add other authentication methods
* Make configurable (host/port to use)
* Use async communication with Tor server, making it possible to react to
signals from the server
[x] Replace "disconnected menu" by single extra menu item
[x] Log extension name so that source is visible in logs
[ ] Make configurable (host/port to use)
[ ] Use async communication with Tor server, making it possible to react to
signals from the server
[ ] Add other authentication methods
## Ideas
* Add option for switching identity regularly
* Add option for running configurable applications with torsocks (if available)
* Show info about current tunnel (maps, hostnames, countries)
* Add option for explicitly choosing tunnels, excluding countries etc.
* Show info about current tunnel (maps, hostnames, countries) - or write
separate tool?
* Add options for explicitly choosing tunnels, excluding countries etc.
* Support automatic detection of a running Tor Browser?
