Several improvements:

1. The number of tweets that a group can show is now configurable. For
now through the tweetbox.properties file only.
This number also sets the max. number of tweets that are retrieved
from the Twitter API for that group.
At this moment this only implemented for the friendTimeLine and the
replies.

2. Tweets are no cached locally in the user's home folder when
TweetBox is closed. The cached items are reloaded at next startup, and
only tweets that were posted after the most recent cached tweet are
retrieved from Twitter.

3. Send "in reply to" information with replies sent from TweetBox

4. Display "in reply to" information in a tweet (does not work as it
should yet: it is still under development)

Hi Mark.

I've just started using Tweetbox.fx. As an OpenSolaris user, I'm
totally jazzed to have a cool Twitter client that does not require
Adobe AIR. Thanks!!

With respect to this:

> 3. Send "in reply to" information with replies sent from TweetBox

I have version 2.0 and what I'm seeing is that the replies I send are
not correctly sending the "in reply to" information. In Tweetbox.fx I
see it is in reply to "-1". I thought it might be this issue:

> 4. Display "in reply to" information in a tweet (does not work as it
> should yet: it is still under development)

But when I look at my timeline, those tweets are not showing up as
being "in reply to" anything. Is there something I should be doing in
a config file somewhere, or have I found a bug which I should file?

Thanks again for your work! Take care.
