Retweet

This script overrides Twitter's retweet-function and does a classic retweet.

Features
  • Reformat: The resulting retweet will be cleaned and reformatted saving space and giving primary credit to the original-poster and to the last posting user adding "via". Long retweet-chains will be detected and cut off.
  • Links: cut off links ending with "..." will be recovered.
  • Supports retweeting from everywhere You find a "retweet"-Link on Twitter.
