drivel
drivel is a Twitter command line interface for status updates, media upload and mentions. My personal opinion is that you shouldn't be on Twitter in the first place, but anyway...
You can find releases on releases.gutmet.org or build it yourself.
build
Checkout the repository and compile with
go build drivel.go credentials.go
usage
To get your last 100 mentions:
drivel mentions
To update your status with optional media upload:
drivel status STATUS [FILE1, FILE2, ...]
with any number of files, as long as they are .jpg, .png, .gif or .mp4 and smaller than 5 MB each. On first use, drivel will ask you to go to 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.
drivel will automatically split large status messages and multiple files into separate tweets belonging to the same thread.
example:
$ ./drivel
Usage: drivel STATUS [FILE1, FILE2, ...]
$ ./drivel "First Message"
Did not find /home/alexander/.drivel, creating.
