TTYtter
TTytter is a client for the microblogging service Twitter. The
difference with other clients is that TTYtter 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, you can use TTYtter 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.
