Bug reports

If you find some bugs in twittering-mode, please send a mail with detailed information to twittering-mode ML:

  • Platform (Windows, Linux, Mac OS X, ...)
  • Kind of Emacs and its version number (GNU Emacs, XEmacs, Carbon Emacs, ...): you can check it by (emacs-version)<C-j> on *scratch* buffer.
  • What you wanted to do, what you actually did, and what happened.
  • Any other information you think it's important.

If you have enough time, please try to reproduce the bug in a minimal environment. You can launch Emacs without loading any scripts by emacs -Q. This saves our time so much :)
