a seperate window for replies #21

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago
It would be nice if we had a separate window for replies.

I mean let the replies come in the main window as it is, but replies should
also be visible in a different window. This would remove the need to visit
twitter.com/replies every now and then.

Also replies in the main window could be highlighted or something.

True! Very much needed! But is it architecturally possible to make it real-time 
like 
summize!

Personally I use http://search.twitter.com for replies but lately it has 
started 
giving lame results i.e. missing some of the tweets, so can't even rely on it 
anymore (I believe it happened just after Twitter bought Summize).

This is possible. Actually, currently we have

1. twpublic -> public timeline
2. twuser -> user timeline
3. twitter.com -> friends' timeline

If you add user with the named above, it'll fetch the correspond timeline. So 
the
replies timeline is just another timeline set that we can fetch from.

However, this way, you'll always get the replies periodically (duplicate with
twitter.com). I don't think this'll be what you really need.

How about having a control command

/replies

To fetch all replies?

OK, I added a user named "twuser" but it's marked as "offline".

How do I enable it properly?

(using Pidgin 2.5.5 with Twitgin 0.2.1)

Same here. Pidgin 2.5.5 and twitgin 0.2.1
I'd love to see separate windows for @replies and dm's. I added a buddy twuser, 
but
it remains offline. Has this functionality been removed?

/replies does work BTW, but since I get quite a few of them, having to manually 
type
a command all the time just doesn't cut it.

Actually I *am* seeing some activity in the "twuser" tab, but so far it's been
echoing my outgoing tweets, which wasn't quite what I was expecting.

Sadly Pidgin crashed overnight, so wasn't watching when I actually got some 
replies.
I'll keep my eyes peeled.

Phil, you are right, I just noticed that this morning when I posted a reply to
someone. After I fix some connectivity issues (ie, go to the store and buy a 
new AP),
I'll do some tests.

Nope, confirmed: it's recording *my* tweets, even posted via the web from work, 
but
nothing directed *at* me.

Maybe you could keep the "twuser" functionality, and add "twreplies" to monitor
"replies & mentions"?
