Hello,

I'm interested to know if you are planning or are interested in adding nick coloration (like under irssi for example: http://irssi.org/themefiles/revolutionary.png) to tyrs. Being a very visual person I found this feature to improve greatly the readability of ncurse based application and therefor this would be very cool in tyrs.

I've taken a look at the source in an attempt to code this but the code doesn't seems to be though with this in mind (I've tryed a dirty patch but this creates other bugs). I'm thinking about coloring the whole decoration around the tweet instead but I think that this will create to much noise. Also I have no idea on how to handle this with the themes.

Best regards,

Hi,

Unfortunately, I haven't time to maintain or add any functionality to Tyrs. I agree that it could be a nice feature though. There is a dictionary (or just a list, I don't remember) with nicks for the completion, it could be a place to add some color codes. Urwid handle as well 256 colors as shown in this example.

Cheers
