TheQube 0.7 is out! – TheQube — an accessible social networking client

At last and finally TheQube 0.7 is out!
Please note that it’s still a preproduction release so there might be errors and issues that will be fixed in upcoming versions.

Changes in this version

Now the application is called TheQube (without a space) and versioned according to usually adopted system major.minor.patch. And, until the first stable version is released, the first digit will be zero, so this version is 0.7.

The Speech and Braille tabs in the global TheQube configuration are consolidated into one tab since the Braille tab contained only one check box.

The tweets translation service is back (#27)

Audio links from rebranded AudioBoom are supported.

Now TheQube has a permanent multilingual website

Now Ctrl+BackSpace works in new message dialogs, allowing to delete previous word.

Now the website address in the profile info dialog won’t be shortened with t.co.

Now the profile info dialog shows also the number of users that added the current user to their lists.

The doc folder is removed from sources as it doesn’t contain any meaningful guidelines for TheQube developers. If the number of developers grows, such guidelines will be rewritten.

Temporarily removed support of the hkc.im URL shortener because of a service error, see their main page

Added support for new URL shortening services, namely goo.gl, senta.la and Readability

The authorization process doesn’t require a pin code anymore. However, the browser page still opens, we can’t do anything to it so far (#13)
Notes:
- As the application name and authorization process have changed, it’s quite probable that you need to wipe your %AppData%\TheQube folder and re-authorize your sessions. Sorry about this.
- If you have more than one session and try to authorize one session and then another one just after this, Twitter might not redirect you to the success page. If such a thing happens, you have to restart TheQube (#49)
