I'm using the Touch theme and it appears on the folder, but I couldn't find any icons in the Touch folder. I don't know if I'm using the wrong command line or if there isn't any icon files in it.
Hopefully this can't help!!
Thx
theme = touch
and do you have
/opt/witter/icons/touch
and are you saying that /opt/witter/icons/touch is empty?
Note all lower case
To fix you'd need to find one of the folders in /opt/witter/icons that does have icons in it, and then edit the .witter file to have that folder name as the configured theme. However this really shouldn't have been able to happen, so I'm obviously missing something....

looks like I've screwed up the packaging and included a Touch as well as a touch folder. only the lower case version has a real set of icons in. the other should not exist. I'll fix it in the next version, but in the mean time you need to make sure you change .witter to have
theme = touch
NOT
theme = Touch
theme = touch
NOT
theme = Touch

Mine theme says Touch (with a T). It started to crash after I set it. My question is (it might be pretty basic, but I'm still learning how to use the x-term) how do I set the theme to one theme that works?
Thx

Download Midnight Commander...
Start the Xterm
sudo gainroot
mc
then in midnight commander, find the .witter file and press edit... find the text where it says theme=Touch
edit that into theme=touch
For me this worked... let me know if it worked for you

I was hoping to have time to package a fix for this, so that you wouldn't have to learn how to edit the file. But I've been too busy.
there are lots of ways, the way I know is to use an editor called 'vi' but this is not exactly a user friendly way to do anything.
basically....at xterm enter:
vi /home/user/.witter
this will load up a screen with the contents of the file, navigate using the arrow keys to put the cursor under the T of Touch then enter:
rt
this will 'replace' the current caracter with 't'
then enter
:wq
the colon will take you to a menu, then w will save the file, and the q will quit.

I chanced the theme to monochrome (I tried the touch as well) but witter keeps crashing. When I run the command more /home/user/.witter, it shows me theme = monochrome.
Running the command run-standalone.sh.... it shows this:
gestures enabled
no service setting
Traceback (most recent call last) :
File "/opt/witter/witter.py", line 1184, in <module>
app = Witter ()
File "/opt/witter/witter.py", line 149, in __init__
self.readConfig ()
File "/opt/witter/witter.py", line 455, in readConfig
self.search_terms = config.get ("search", "search_terms")
File "/usr/lib/python2.5/ConfigParser.py", line 520, in get
raise NoOptionError: No option 'search_terms' in section: 'search'
Either I screwed it up for good or we are getting close to fix it. I'm almost waiting for the next update to be released, but I really like this app. Hopefully it works again.
Thx

I think you are making a wonderful effort and you have a very advanced application going here.
I have one gripe, there are very many buttons in my opinion, which makes it all feel a bit cluttered. In addition, in landscape mode, they are stealing precious vertical screen space. I would therefore suggest if it would be possible to:
- Perhaps align the buttons vertically on one side when in landscape mode?
- Perhaps hide the less significant buttons under a dropdown menu somehow?
- You could also consider to hide the field where you write your tweet, and bring it up when you click the t in the corner.
To sum up, keep up your great efforts, and thank you very much!
