Hi,
First off, this is an awesome twitter client. You've done a great job and keep up the great work!

I just have minor 2 issues:
- When I start DT it opens on different virtual desktop than the virtual desktop that I'm currently using. I then have to manually drag it to the virtual desktop that I want it to be on. - Also, you can't manage the application like a native Linux app. For example, when you right click on the DT title bar you don't get a context menu.

Cheers!

    Hey Steve,

    The app opens on a different screen because it says the coordinates of the window on close. It used to check to see if it was on the proper screen and if not, move, but on Linux this was causing other issues. Regarding the right-click, what should the context menu include?

    Hi Jonnie,
    I'm not sure I understand... If you're saying that it saves the coordinates on close... it should in theory open on the previously used virtual desktop. It doesn't. After a bit more testing I see that it always opens on the virtual desktop that's '1' screen over/higher than the one I'm using. Maybe you've got an off-by-one bug?

    On regular most Linux apps the context menu contains stuff like the attached screen-shot of Firefox's context menu... which is the same as any other Gnome application. I can't really speak for KDE and other desktops though.

    Thanks for the prompt response!
