qTwitter is a simple application interacting with twitter.com social network. It was originally inspired by Twitterrific, known very well to Mac OS X users. It's being developed in Qt framework for C++.

Features' summary as for v0.6.0:
  - posting updates to Twitter and downloading friends or public timeline,
  - support for multiple accounts,
  - support for deleting messages, replying, retweeting and copying Tweets' permalinks to clipboard,
  - support for downloading direct messages,
  - integrated support for shortening URLs,
  - full interaction with TwitPic API, allowing for easy one-click image uploading and posting updates,
  - system tray notifications (via knotify and Growl),
  - customizable Tweet list length and look (via the use of themes),
  - in-session password storing,
  - HTTP proxy support,
  - being recognized as a source of updates,
  - translation to 7 languages in the run-time (sorry for my poor Catalan/Spanish, I appreciate any help here :) ).

See CHANGELOG for details.
