Re: witter - a python twitter client
 
Update following your suggestion - problems solved.
I am getting all tweets except ReTweets (!!) and the +20 and +50 work fine.

You did say "two interesting problems", do I need to do anything else and should I delete the .jpg s on a regular basis ?

As promised another pint is on it's way to you.
Great application.

great! the two problems where one empty file and one courrupted, probably both caused by same network blip. shouldn't need to clean cache unless you experience problems again. ande the next ver will have some defensive code to cope with this situation.

thanks again for the pint, i will certainly enjoy :-)

#witter 0.3.3-1 now in extras-devel. Details are on my blogs witter page. Some new stuff to try out with notifications and persisting where you were up to when you shut witter, to load only new tweets.

I dont like the new "feautures", I mean it should be configurable.. I dont like vibrating and notifications...

The "persisting where you were.." should be great if we had like a separator and the "old" tweets available under/after it. What if I want to read the old ones? Here I get an empty list if there's no tweets since I shutted it down... not a good deal!

Thanks

maybe the older tweets could get cached.
This way the older tweets show while witter looks for new tweets

if you read the detailed change history on my blog, you would see that i consider that version a half way point, i wanted to make it availiable but i know more is needed.
don't update from extras-devel if you don't want to pick up half steps that some may feel are backwards.

Ok it's getting better now. What we (I ;)) would need now is portrait mode and lists. :D

how have you configured it? Oauth/basic? I assume this is a twitter account rather than a twitter compatible service?
Is trends the only thing that gives you a bad response?
I did just check and it's working for me, so at least I've not managed to break it without noticing.

that is exactly the intention, but it is not a trivial task to persist the last set of tweets to disk and reload at startup.
currently I plan to only store the latest 20 tweets to reload, rather than attempt to store everything.
