qTwitter 0.10.0: no idea

November 2nd, 2009

Don’t know what to write here, let’s be brief and concrete this time. qTwitter 0.10.0 is out. It brings some new handy functionalities, like:

  • mentions timeline (no shit! should be there half a year ago :P) that is merged together with the friends timeline,
  • automatic tagging thingy – it converts your selected words into #hashtags and it’s smart enough not to touch URLs and StatusNet !groups,
  • improved URL shortening – now shortening all the urls in a status at one go, plus comes with a customizable shortcut,
  • notifications fixed to notify about new statuses AND NOT unread ones,
  • fixes in parsing URLs in statuses (kudos to Stephan Beyer).

Plus some code clean-ups, build system fixes, and so on. I provided some initial plugin interface, but I don’t really want to talk about it in public yet, as it’s immature, not ready and you won’t do too much with it at the moment ;) but it allowed me to write two extensions already, and they seem to be working fine so far.

So, qTwitter is here. Precisely, here. Happy twitting!

BTW. qTwitter 0.9.2 and QOAuth 1.0 stable in Gentoo Portage since a while ago :)

    Dear Dominik,

    I’ve just installed your application and think it’s pretty useful and efficient. But I would like it to be localized! Are you thinking of implementing localization at this time? Because I would like to help you with localizing it to Dutch!

    With regards,

    Winand Renkema

    found a bug: if I used the http proxy and after updating just one tweet, then the qTwitter can’t update tweets or update a new tweet any more. if I never submit a tweet, qtwitter can update tweets well.

    发现一bug: 如果使用了http代理。一旦发了一条新tweet,那么qtwitter就挂了,无法再更新或者发tweet了,关了重开又好了。如果开了之后不发tweet那么可以一直更新。

    英文不好,哪位大侠看到了,可以帮忙准确翻译一下吗?谢了

    When I input the PIN number into the box and click the OK button, then the interface became gray and no response.I used the TOR bridges, so I set the proxy 127.0.0.1:8118. What action should be taken to solve this kind of problem? Thank you very much!

    Can this be compiled for Maemo 5 or will the diablo version work?
