There's one major feature in this release, the ability to render tweets.

A tweet is a headline whose type is tweet. They can appear in any kind of page, of any type.

They will be rendered correctly in pages of the following types: outline, html, stream, presentation, markdown, bloghome.

This is the Fargo side of the connection with "Happy Friends".

There is a blog post on the Happy Friends site that explains the hookup from that side.

How to use a Happy Friends outline in Fargo

Basically...

1. Get the outline from Happy Friends.

2. Choose Open by URL in the File menu. Enter the outline from step 1.

3. That gets you an outline with tweets in Fargo.

4. Copy and paste those into your outlines in Fargo, and render as normal.

The tweets should show up in your pages as they do in mine.

Be sure to reload the "Fargo" app before doing so.

Colorful and cute and somewhat irreverent.

Syntax

The best part is that there's a syntax for Emojis in text-based apps like Fargo.

For example, :baseball: gets you the Emoji for

There's a list of all the codes on the Emoji Cheat Sheet.

As you can see this syntax is already supported by lots of famous apps including Campfire and GitHub. Add "Fargo" to the list.
