I've pushed out TTYtter 0.9.0 tonight, which is a large update to the TTYtter pure Perl command line client and platform. This version not only corrects several bugs, but also adds API rate limit polling and autothrottling, URL shortening, readline terminal support (for cursor key editing, TAB completion and enhanced history), additional support for full-screen clients like ssfe and a streamlined and more efficient background polling engine.
Because this introduces some dramatic rejiggering of Twitter's functionality (and there is at least one outstanding bug I have not been able to reliably monitor), I have also chosen to release a "stable" 0.8.5 that includes the bug fixes but no new features. This version fixes a problem with UTF-8 handling and spurious error messages for people who had no DMs. There are no significant changes to the API for this edition, so projects using TTYtter as the backend should not require modification. You can get 0.8.5 and 0.9.0 from http://www.floodgap.com/software/ttytter/ http://www.floodgap.com/software/ttytter/090.html Comments and suggestions are as always welcome. -- ------------------------------------ personal: http://www.cameronkaiser.com/ -- Cameron Kaiser * Floodgap Systems * www.floodgap.com * [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- Smile if you like this tag line. -------------------------------------------
