Gwibber

How can I view the entire message?

Asked by Jason Heeris

When a tweet is retweeted using the web-based UI, the "RT @username: " is suppressed and does not seem to count towards the character limit. Gwibber will show the "RT ..." leader and truncate it before the end of the full tweet (ie. at 140 characters *including* this leader), even though the tweet itself goes on longer.

Is there a way to show the full message, other than launching a web browser?
