Use your Twitter account as your Pidgin status message.
New to 0.4.0
- Support for updating multiple savedstatuses (For away on idle etc.)
- Status format changes would be picked up even if there are no updates.
- Twitter status now writes to a saved status, rather than the main one.
- Add more debugging information to help debugging any issues
- Fix print undefined purple status message
- Fix when no XML data is returned.
- Use in_reply_to_user_id XML node instead of string parsing, to detect replies.
- 'Advanced option' to set a regular expression, which is tested against the tweet, and discarded if matching (I, for example, set it to #twitter, so that twitter specific tweets are ignored)
- If the first status is not suitable, go for the second, and so on...
- If the user changes status after we set it, don't trash the changes, unless we have a more recent update from Twitter.
- Only downloads diffs from Twitter from previous update using since_id: Saves bandwidth, and friendlier to Twitter servers.
- Stricter username checking, just reschedule timer and return instead of die'ing for invalid usernames, so that we can pickup any username changes from preferences.
- Use an integer for timeout preference, and remove all the string parsing
- 'Advanced option' to set the API root url, instead of http://twitter.com. http://identi.ca/api should work as well, though I haven't tested that much. (identi.ca support for free, thus!)
- Minor code cleanups: Use variables where sane instead of hardcoding, version http user agent, use strict and warnings on Perl, fix scopes of various variables.
