<p>Some clients can choose to send outgoing real-time text at all times by default. Other clients might choose to do user-initiated activation (e.g. via a button). These guidelines provide interoperability between clients that use different methods of initiating real-time text.</p>
|

<section2 topic="Activating Real-Time Text" anchor="activating_realtime_text">
|
||||
<p>In the simplest case, sender clients MAY simply begin transmitting real-time text (i.e. send <rtt/> elements) upon determining support.</p>
|
||||
<p>For one-to-one chats, it can be beneficial for clients to easily synchronize the enabling/disabling of real-time text. Upon receiving incoming real-time text, recipient clients MAY automatically do an appropriate response, such as:</p>
|
||||
<ul>
|
||||
<li>Activate immediately (begin transmitting <rtt/> elements too); or</li>
|
||||
<li>Activate after user confirmation prompt (for <link url="#privacy">Privacy</link> considerations); or</li>

<li>Deny (transmit <rtt event='cancel'/>); or</li>

<li>Display only incoming real-time text (e.g. <link url="#multiuser_chat">Multi-User Chat</link> participants control their own outgoing real-time text).</li>
|
||||
</ul>
|
||||
<p>To prevent transmission loops, senders SHOULD NOT transmit <rtt event='init'/> automatically in response to incoming <rtt event='init'/>. Upon sending any <rtt/> elements (except <rtt event='cancel'/>), real-time text is considered activated on the sender side and it is not necessary to transmit <rtt event='init'/> again for the chat session while real-time text is active.</p>
|
||||
<p>For any client, the preferred first <rtt/> element to send is <rtt <link url="#event">event</link>='init'/> as it can quickly signal activation of real-time text, without waiting for the sender to begin composing a new message, and since it is usable regardless of discovery. Also, if the sender was already composing a message when activating real-time text, <link url="#message_refresh">Message Refresh</link> handles this situation.</p>
|
||||
<p>While explicit discovery is strongly RECOMMENDED (see <link url="#determining_support">Determining Support</link>), the sender client MAY implicitly request and discover the use of real-time text, by sending <rtt event='init'/> upon activation. Senders SHOULD NOT send any further <rtt/> elements, until support is confirmed either by incoming <rtt/> elements or via discovery. Implicit discovery makes it possible to use real-time text as an enhancement to &xep0085; (XEP-0085 Section 5.1), during all situations where it can be used (e.g. when an actively-composing recipient appears invisible/offline to the sender).

Text insertions or deletions, occurring far back in the message, can cause a large number of erase operations in T.140 that consume time and bandwidth. T.140 specifies the use of ISO 6429 control codes for presentation characteristics, such as text color, that are not supported by this specification. During transcoding, these control codes needs to be filtered off in order to not disturb the presentation of text.

<p>According to ITU-T Rec. F.703, the “Total Conversation” standard defines the simultaneous use of audio, video, and real-time text. For convenience, real-time communication applications can be designed to have automatic negotiation of as many as possible of the three media preferred by the users.</p>

<p>It is important for users to be made aware of real-time text (e.g. user consent, software notice, introductory explanation). Users of real-time text need to be aware that their typing is now visible in real-time to everyone in the current chat conversation. This may have security implications if users copy & paste private information into their chat entry buffer (e.g. a shopping invoice) before editing out the private parts of the pasted text (e.g. a credit card number) and then sending the message. With real-time message editing, recipients can watch all text changes that occur in the sender's text, before the sender finishes the message. Implementation behaviors and improved education can be added to reduce privacy issues. Examples include showing an introduction upon first activation of feature, special handling for copy and pastes (i.e. preventing them, or prompting for confirmation), recipient confirmation of real-time text via <link url="#activating_and_deactivating_realtime_text">Activating and Deactivating Real-Time Text</link>, etc.</p>

There can be potential security implications if users copy & paste private information into their chat entry buffer (e.g. a shopping invoice) before editing out the private parts of the pasted text (e.g. a credit card number) and then sending the message. There can also be implications for chat clients that suddenly pop up a chat window upon incoming messages and takes keyboard focus unexpectedly, resulting in the sender typing sensitive information into the wrong window. These accidental privacy risks are also apparent for traditional chat (e.g. accidentally sending a message) but are more immediate for real-time text. With real-time message editing, recipients can watch all text changes that occur in the sender's text, before the sender finishes the message.</p>

<p>Such risks can be avoided by good user interface design. In addition, implementation behaviors and improved education can be added to reduce privacy issues. Examples include showing an introduction upon first activation of feature, special handling for copy and pastes (i.e. preventing them, or prompting for confirmation), recipient confirmation of real-time text via <link url="#guidelines_for_initiating_realtime_text">Guidelines for Initiating Real-Time Text</link>, etc.</p>
