See http://www.dlee.org/api_issue.htm for some details about the API
issue and http://www.dlee.org/tween/ for my existing JAWS scripts for
Tween. See the "Tween Resources" link at the second of those places
for a list of keystrokes and other Tween resources for blind users.
The company formerly in charge of developing Tween, Ubermedia, has
discontinued its efforts; but the original Tween developer is
apparently still at it. Details appear in the first place I mentioned
above.
This is straying off topic even though it sort of started out as a
discussion of scripting Tween. :)

Is Qwitter no longer a working tool for Twitter? If Tween is dropped what

One other heads up: I'm seeing evidence that Tween itself is discontinued.
The biggest indication of this comes from the Tween web site itself,
http://tweenapp.org: "The Tween desktop application has been discontinued by
Ubermedia."

No objections and thanks for the asking and credit. :)
I do plan to keep my offering up and may update it if I start using Tween,
but I'm undecided yet on if or when that will happen.
In case it matters, I have some evidence that James Homuth, moderator of the
JFW list, is packaging scripts with Tween itself for download and
advertising this, and that the scripts he's packaging may actually be the
ones I posted on my site.
So basically this "error 411" issue that started tripping up all the
Qwitter-spawned Twitter clients, and a few others outside the blind
community I might add, is causing a lot of side effects in short order.

Hi Doug
Very sorry but I do not have your email address, hence writing to the list.
I have this morning produced some scripts for the Tween client. I quite like
one of your modifications and would like to include your scripts with mine
so people only have one set to download. Would you mind if I distribute your
modifications also please? I didn't want to just do this without obtaining
your permission first.
If you would like to write to me off list, please write to
jaws@xxxxxxxxxxx
Thank you for reading.
Brian
