4 1. What is this?
|
|
|
5
|
|
|
6 pidgin-twitter is a pidgin plugin to help twittering via pidgin. This
|
|
26
|
7 plugin translates any @username and the sender name to the link to the
|
|
|
8 user respectively. pidgin-twitter also can play a sound when an
|
|
|
9 incoming message contains any recipient name or sender name which is
|
|
|
10 listed in the each dedicated lists.
|
|
17
|
11
|
|
26
|
12 *update*
|
|
|
13 From version 0.5.0, pidgin-twitter automatically escapes annoying
|
|
|
14 "pseudo command" in sending message. A pseudo command is a message
|
|
|
15 like "¤Ë¤Û¤ó¤´w" or "....w" and it will be wrongly interpreted as an
|
|
|
16 incomplete command message so that twitter gives us an error massage.

18 2. Dependency
|
|
|
19
|
|
|
20 This plugin requires pidgin 2.4.0 or newer and glib-2.14.0 or newer.
|
|
|

|
|

|
|
|
23 3. How to build
|
|
|
24
|
|
|
25 Building pidgin-twitter plugin is very simple. Please do
|
|
|
26
|
|
|
27 ./configure
|
|
|
28 make
|
|
|
29 sudo make install
|
|
|
30
|
|
|
31
|
|
|
32 4. Usage
|
|
|
33
|
|
26
|
34 To enable pidgin-twitter, please check it "Enabled" in pidgin's
|
|
|
35 plugins window. If it is enabled, it replaces each @username string
|
|
|
36 and sender string with the link to the corresponding user, by
|
|
|
37 default. You can enable/disable these via plugin's configure window.
|
|
17
|
38
|
|
|
39 Play sound for matched recipients or sender is also enabled by
|
|
|
40 default, however it might not work until you specify user lists for
|
|
26
|
41 this feature.
|
|
|
42
|
|
|
43 Recipient list accommodates names of watched recipients. Usually, the
|
|
|
44 first name might be your user name. Sender list accommodates names of
|
|
|
45 watched senders, instead. These lists are independent to each other
|
|
|
46 so that you can maintain different groups to be watched. An user list
|
|
|
47 is a enumeration of usernames separated by a letter in ",:;". For
|
|
|
48 example, "foo bar" or "foo,bar" is a valid user list and a list like
|
|
|
49 "foo, bar" also works. This functionality is also able to be toggled
|
|
|
50 on/off via configuration window.
|
|
17
|
51
|
|
|
52 Event type of sound to play is also configurable. By default, the
|
|
26
|
53 "Pounce Default" sound is specified since it may not be disabled by
|
|
|
54 configuration in pidgin's preferences. You can specify other sounds,
|
|
|
55 but be aware, you have to enable the event type of sound which you
|
|
|
56 specified for pidgin-twitter in pidgin's preferences.
|
|
|
57
|
|
|
58 Escape pseudo command functionality is enabled by default. To disable
|
|
|
59 this feature, please uncheck it in the plugin configuration window. I
|
|
|
60 recommend you to leave it always enabled.
