with any number of files, as long as they are .jpg, .png, .gif or .mp4 and smaller than 50 MB each. On first use, drivel will ask you to go to [https://apps.twitter.com/app/new ](https://apps.twitter.com/app/new ), register a new app and create an access token. Those values will be stored in HOME/.drivel/ for later use.
2019-01-01 19:35:22 +01:00
drivel will automatically split large status messages and multiple files into separate tweets belonging to the same thread.
2020-10-23 19:21:46 +02:00
The results of the 'home' and 'mentions' commands can be filtered to only include certain user names. Create text files 'AllowlistHome' and 'AllowlistMentions' in HOME/.drivel and list allowed users line by line.

Each command (other than wipe) can use a go text template to format the printed results - pass a file name to '--template'. The template is executed with a slice of []Status. See types.go for available data fields and example.template for a minimalist example.
