Twitim has GUI for major configurations, but it is possible to configure more minor settings in config files.

System Wide Configuration

Twitim reads system wide configuration from /etc/twitim/twitim.conf. If pixmaps data locate in /usr/share/pixmap and the desktop entry locate in /usr/share/applications/, write configuration in /etc/twitim/twitim.conf.

$PIXMAPS_DIR = "/usr/share/pixmaps/twitim/"; $DESKTOP_ENTRY_DIR = "/usr/share/applications/";

Twitim use the desktop entry for setting Autostart.

Appilication Icons

Twitim does not have the official application icons, but it is possible to configure them. Put image files in /etc/twitim/.

• twitter.png (application icon)
• twitter-large.png (desktop menu icons)

Minor Configurations

Each user configuration is in ~/.twitimrc. Users can add minor settings in the [defualt] block in it.
