If you want them in a separate channel, use the use_groupchat setting (see <emphasis>help set use_groupchat</emphasis>).75 By default all your Twitter contacts will come from a contact called twitter_(yourusername).

Just add your account with a bogus password and type <emphasis>account on</emphasis>. BitlBee will then give you a URL to authenticate with Twitter. If this succeeds, Twitter will return a PIN code which you can give back to BitlBee to finish the process. 719 </para> 720 721 <para> 722 The resulting access token will be saved permanently, so you have to do this only once. 723 </para> 724 </description> 725 726 </bitlbee-setting> 727 685 728 <bitlbee-setting name="ops" type="string" scope="global"> 686 729 <default>both</default> … … 818 861 </bitlbee-setting> 819 862 863 <bitlbee-setting name="show_offline" type="boolean" scope="global"> 864 <default>false</default> 865 866 <description> 867 <para> 868 If enabled causes BitlBee to also show offline users in Channel.

This should keep the server and client on the other side from shutting it down. 932 </para> 933 934 <para> 935 This is useful because BitlBee doesn't support MSN offline messages yet and the MSN servers won't let the user reopen switchboards to offline users. Once offline messaging is supported, this flag might be removed. 865 936 </para> 866 937 </description> … … 916 987 <para> 917 988 Sends you a /notice when a user starts typing a message (if supported by the IM protocol and the user's client). To use this, you most likely want to use a script in your IRC client to show this information in a more sensible way. 918 </para>919 </description>920 </bitlbee-setting>921 922 <bitlbee-setting name="use_groupchat" type="boolean" scope="account">923 <default>false</default>924 925 <description>926 <para>927 By default the Twitter module shows all Twitter contacts and their Tweet in &bitlbee and/or private messages.
