more Data with -l output? native RT<->oldRT feature request

[msagebiel]

Hi,
I saw recently the streaming api has infos about RT and fav Numbers of a Tweet. (openfuego) Is it possible to get those data from Tweets?
More important, I really would like to see a difference between native RT and 'old RT' (mention) :) when doing a -l output, which I do everytime- mostly

I am also interested in such a feature.

This is really two separate feature requests:

1. Display the number of favorites for tweet streams.
2. Display a difference between old-skool/new-skool retweets.

@ecscott Which of these two features are you interested in?

@msagebiel How would you propose we differentiate between old-skool and new-skool retweets? Should there be a “Retweet” column? A ♻️ symbol? Something else?

Likewise, as favorites stream in, how would you expect that information to be displayed?

In theory, what you’ve proposed here sounds interesting, but I don’t have a clear idea of how it would actually work. If you’d like this request to be implemented, it would be extremely helpful if you described what the feature should look like—just screenshots or text. Once you’ve proposed something concrete, I can being to implement it in code. If I started writing the code now, it’s possible I would build something that doesn’t actually solve your problem.

Here are a couple exemplar issues for you to follow:

• Display relative position in the build queue travis-ci/travis-ci#1815
• Cancel build notifications are confusing travis-ci/travis-ci#1859

If you don’t provide any additional details, this issue will be closed as “too vague”.
