Use it or don't, and own your decision. It works. It's stable. It's

Lee,
TwitPic and TweetPhoto use Basic Auth for this; if you post a photo to

Hi guys,
I'm using a desktop platform with a Lua scripting environment. The app
I'm making is standalone and does not run in a browser. It can connect
to http resources.
I'm trying out a simple test to update a status but web services isn't
a strong point of mine.
I'm following Basic Auth for now
Your basic auth value should be in a header not the post body. The
other X- values I think also go
into headers, but I don't provide those really so not sure. I'm not
even sure if twitter pays attention to those.

Correct on the headers... Also note that if you're making a post, you

Hi all,
it is my understanding that retweets should show up in the Twitter
Streaming API and especially the 'filter' Stream which I am using. My
last discussion a few weeks (months) ago with a Twitter Dev confirmed
that.
I am using the Twitter4J API which has support for the new new Retweet
API,
Could it be there are some issues with the streaming API and the
retweets there, too? I cannot see retweeted messages in the new xml
format there... just the normal Status payload.

I'm seeing this both on twitter.com and in Tweetie 2.1 on the iPhone

You just built an object. If you want to read tweets you have to use a
function that retrieves them.
For example, if you want to search for tweets
my $r = $nt-search(hello world);
print Dumper $r;
It may help if you read the documentation for that module
In this case, this isn't the Streaming API. That encoding is almost
certainly what was presented to Twitter, probably exactly as encoded
by the client. In this case, I'd complain to:
