It would be nice to see the tweet to which a person has replied.

Couple of iPhone apps have that and it is very useful. The view can
also show a thread of replies.

Hmm, if you wish to implement it, I can give you access to svn :)

I do know everything, just not all at once. It's a virtual memory problem.

Mmm, I cannot give any username :) I've added you to commiters. Now,
you should see instructions for checkout on
http://code.google.com/p/qwit/source/checkout

And, please, try not to commit untested/unfinished code into trunk -
create a branch for yourself and do everything there, and then merge
the changes with the trunk

Does git or mercurial give any advantage for such small project like qwit? :)

Humm, well I don't see any advantage just personal preference after
working on both systems (svn & mercurial).
I have worked on both large & small using both svn/mercurial both has
adv/disadvantages.
anyway,
I will keep my personal preference to myself then :)

Artem,

I sincerely like your humility! It's rare to find in these days.

I was once a Qwit user myself. However I found the flat view of messages time-consuming and counter-productive. I went on to build a web-based client ( http://tdash.org ) of my own.

To relate to this thread, tDash does show parent tweets, and you may find some ideas on what to do (and what not to do :) from there.

best,

So the flatview is by design? Will we not implement bubble type of
tweets?

What do you mean by 'bubble type of tweets'?

Do you mean, that tweets in main window should be in such bubbles or
something else? (I slept too little and maybe misunderstood something
:) )

Yes. Each tweet would be in a bubble with tail pointing to the photo.
I will try to draw a picture and see how it would look like. If u like
it then I can implement that as well. :) I can use the bubble thing
for convertional view as well.
