TwitEclipse is a Twitter client that I decided to write in .Net using WPF(Windows Presentation Foundation).
This application requires .Net 3.5 SP1. I am not bundling .Net 3.5 with the installer because I need to keep the installer
file size down for downloading purposes. Also, since this application uses the .Net framework, it is a Windows only client.
You can download .Net 3.5 SP1 from
here.
If you are running Vista or Windows 7, you should already have .Net 3.5 SP1 installed. If you are running Windows XP, you may
need to download it.
This is a BETA application. There are many features that I am still adding. You may experience errors or bugs. I have only
tested this on Windows XP. You may find issues if running on Vista or Windows 7. If you do
find errors or bugs, please let me know so I can fix them. I can be contacted at
TwitEclipse@eclipsed4utoo.com. Also, if you have any questions/comments/suggestions, please
send me an email. I am open to all questions/comments/suggestions.
Current features include:
- OAuth Authentication - uses tokens instead of your username and password(more secure)
- Auto URL shortening - Will auto shorten URLs with bit.ly that are longer than 25 characters
- Friends Status - Viewing, Replying, Retweeting, and Favoriting statuses of Friends
- Messages - Viewing and Sending Direct Messages
- Statuses - Updating and Deleting your statuses
- Mentions - Viewing Mentions
- Profiles - Viewing Friends, Followers, Follow/Unfollow, and last 20 Tweets
- Report Followers/Friends as SPAM
- Minimizes to System Try with icon
- Bubble notifications of new Friend Updates/Mentions/Direct Messages
This application does not cache tweets locally. This will be coming later.

NOTE: Right-clicking on a tweet will show a context menu, which contains the commands to perform actions.
