-Now you have to use your own API keys with Hotot Plus. This to avoid write permissions suspensions by Twitter that have battered the client over the past few months.
-Added an initial form to ask the user for his own API keys with instrunctions about how to do it.
-Removed all the limitations, delays and heavy checks introduced in the past few versions to try to avoid write permissions suspensions by Twitter. Since they had no positive result I deleted them to increase again the client performances.
-Increased the tweet limit to 280 characters (note: Twitter could take a few days to apply this new limit to all the accounts, so if you got any error sending tweets please limit them to 140 characters by yourself until Twitter applies the new limit to your account too.)

-Added a new function to check the use of unsolicited mentions: now any user can send only 5 unsolicited mentions (mentions outside conversations and directed to non-followers) within 15 minutes (so 20 per hour). This is my last attempt to avoid the write-permissions suspension of Hotot Plus API key by Twitter. If even this will not work then in the next update I will abandon the use of the automatic API key, forcing the user to use its own API key.
-Changed the jQuery file with the minified version (requested by Mozilla).
-Moved the JS files of translations outside the _locales folder (requested by Mozilla).

-Fixed a bug with the retweets of the new tweets longer than 140 chars that were not displayed correctly.
-Fullfilled the issue #19: now you can send tweets with only images or video (so without the need to insert any text).

-Added support for the new feature of Twitter that does not count anymore (within the 140 chars limit) attached media and quoted tweets.
Note: Twitter supports only one "free" attachment for tweet, this means that if you attach an image to a tweet then the quoted tweet link will count within the 140 chars limit!

-Updated the Streaming API to support the new feature of "free" attachments.

-Changed the behaviour of quoted tweets: now their link will not appear anymore inside the text but below the status box.

-Fixed a bug that did not allow to attach a reply ID if there was already an image attached to the tweet.

-Fixed a bug with Twitlonger that did not count well the number of characters when an image was attached to the tweet.

-Fixed a bug with Twitlonger that did not refresh the characters count after a text reduction.


-Important note about the Firefox version:
It seems that the update to Firefox 49 in some cases can corrupt the database support for Hotot Plus. This prevents the client to access to its database and so it freezes on the startup loading screen. To solve this issue you need to restore your Firefox profile and reinstall the extension. To do that simply go to the about:support address and click on the button on the right called "Restore Firefox". After the restore you can download again Hotot Plus from Mozilla Addons page and it will work again.

Restored Hotot Plus original API key (Twitter suspended it by mistake, now it has been reactived...)

-New API key (since the old has been suspended by Twitter.

-Upgraded the external libraries, in particular:
--jQuery updated to v2.2.4
--Twitter-text updated to v1.14.0
--Twemoji updated to v2.1.0

-Added the ability to retweet your own tweets.

-Added the support for streaming video thanks to the external library HLS.js: as of August 1, in fact, Twitter no longer supports MP4 video in its API so I had to introduce support for video HLS M3U8.

-Streaming videos will be now loaded inside the internal previewer (just as images, Youtube/Dailymotion/Twitter video) because loading them inline with the tweets caused slowdowns to the client.

-Ability to select a quality for the streaming video: the client will acquire automatically all available qualities for any video and will show a combobox where the user can choose the quality he wishes to use

-Auto quality available for streaming video: in this way the client will calculate automatically the correct quality based on your network speed.

-Now the screen name of the user you're writing a DM will not appear anymore if you're using the new DM view

-Added the ability, with a specific option in the Preferences, to remove the seconds from the timestamp in the tweet footer

-The line "Reply to:" now will appear above the tweet text and no longer under it. This is a change made to follow the new Twitter guidelines about replies.

-The line "Retweeted by:" will now appear under the tweet footer: in this way there will be more space available for the tweet footer and so the client will not truncate it in case of low resolutions (or when many columns are opened in a page).
