description: How to get the zoom video conferencing tool to work on gentoo

## The problem
The zoom video conderencing tool works on gentoo, but since it is not integrated in a desktop environment on my machine (I am running an i3 window manager) I cannot authenticate on the google corporate domain where I work. Here is how to work around that.
## Running the client
```sh
./ZoomLauncher
```
## Working around the "zoommtg address not understood" error
When you try to authenticate you will have your web browser pop up with a link it cannot interpret. You need to get the `zoommtg://.*` thing and run it in another ZoomLauncher (do not close the zoom process that spawned this authentication link or the authentication will fail :
```sh
./ZoomLauncher 'zoommtg://zoom.us/google?code=XXXXXXXX'
```
