Dianara is a pump.io application for the desktop.
With it, you can access your pump.io account without using a web browser.


If you only got the source code, see the INSTALL file for instructions on
how to build it.

Dianara looks best under Plasma Desktop, preferably using a very complete
iconset, like the Oxygen icons, but these are not requirements, just a
recommendation.
You can make the program look nicer in other environments by using 'qtconfig'.



What it does
==============================================================================

 - Posting text (with some HTML formatting), to Followers, Public, person lists
   or specific people.
 - Uploading pictures, audio and video (but audio/video are disabled for now).
 - Receiving different timelines, with configurable number of posts per page,
   and moving forward and backward in pages.
 - Liking, commenting, sharing, editing and deleting posts.
 - Liking, editing and deleting comments.
 - Contact listing, following and unfollowing, either by entering their
   webfinger address or through buttons in the lists and in the avatar menus.
 - Editing your profile, changing your avatar.
 - Watch the 'minor feed' of activities, a.k.a. "the Meanwhile", and opening
   related posts and following people from there.
 - Filtering or highlighting posts, according to a set of configurable rules.
 - Popup notifications when there are new posts, or new "Meanwhile" activities.



Some usage tips
==============================================================================

 - There are tooltips everywhere, so if you hover a button or a text field
   with your mouse, you'll probably see some extra information.
   This is specially useful in the "Meanwhile" column.

 - When publishing a note or posting a comment, you can send using the
   keyboard, by pressing Control+Enter.

 - You can use Control+Up/Down/PgUp/PgDown/Home/End to scroll the timeline.

 - You can set "public posting" as the default in the Configuration window.

 - You can click on the avatar of a post's author to get some options.
   This also works in the comments, and in the Meanwhile feed.

 - If a post is of "image" type, you can click on the image to see it full size.

 - You can hide/show the side panel by pressing F9.
   Some items in the "Meanwhile" column have a "+" button to open the
   referenced post.

 - Adding titles to your posts will make the "Meanwhile" feed a lot more useful!

 - Resizing the window as a column looks better, even though you can use it
   maximized, or in full screen mode, of course.

 - You can change the main window's icon and the tray icon by placing a 64x64
   PNG image called dianara.png into /usr/share/icons/hicolor/64x64/apps/


See the BUGS and TODO files for a list of known issues.



Languages
==============================================================================

Dianara is available in English, Catalan, Spanish and Italian languages.
There is a polish translation in the works.

If you're interested in translating it to your language, let me know.
It's quite easy and it would be appreciated!
