Re: [orca-list] twitter app with orca



Hi,
Twitter is down right mean to 3rd party developers. So, yes, TTYtter's developer moved to more developer 
friendly invironments. The currently replacement of TTYtter is called texapp and works with app.net. I tried 
it, and just never caught on to app.net itself. It's really a shame that Twitter is so repulsive to good 
apps, cause TTYtter is great, but it's only a matter of time til Twitter breaks it.
The best thing would be to fork TTYtter to support pump.io, which dispite my initial impressions, seems to be 
pretty cool.

TTYtter rocks, and I'm sure a very nice wraper could be made for it to integrate with gui menus.
The other idea I had for ttytter is to start a few instances in screen to handle multiple buffers, e.g. one 
for timeline,
another for mentions, and a 3rd for dms with the option to run another one or two.
The Ubuntu version of the package has the term-readline-ttytter package included, but on other distros you'll 
need to get
that separately. I like having that alot as it informs you of how many chars you have typed among other 
things.
I think the developer has abandoned it however, so if anyone is good at perl, please consider standing by to 
fix anything
that twitter breaks.

Description: console Twitter client
 A client for the microblogging service Twitter. The difference with other
 clients is that this is a 100% text-based command line, yet fully functional
 application.

 In interactive mode, it is a fully interactive client with asynchronous
 background updates and commands. It supports ANSI colour, hashtags and Twitter
 Search.

 From the command line, use it to update your Twitter in shell scripts, from
 cron, and so on. TTYtter is extensible and you can run it in daemon mode to
 make your own Twitter bot.
