Twithey 1.1 is ready to go! A small number of changes to the functionality of the program will be obvious apart from it Sucking Less. Config file support has been added too, no more variables to modify inside the scripts. Get it here.

For some reason beyond my comprehension I decided to write up a document of a variety of awful things involving python that popped into my head over the course of a few days. It’s still being worked upon, so more will appear over time. For the moment, enjoy and feel free to suggest additions!

This is an old version of Twithey! The place for all future versions of Twithey is here!

Twithey is a lame little idea that popped into my head one day that I couldn’t let go of - a Twitter client that runs on the command line in a manner not unlike the famous Redbrick/Netsoc/everywhere-else command hey, with the ability to check your timeline using something like “heylog” (as far as I know this command only works in the TCD Netsoc hey, but it does what it sounds like), send regular tweets with a single command and direct messages with a similar command. The software is “very beta” at the moment and the code desperately needs cleaning and optimisation, but if I ever bother myself or if I get feedback I’ll fix things up a bit.

As of the moment you can:

So without further ado, the code is here. Let me know if you have any suggestions, criticism or just want to throw rocks at me.

The mighty and hairy Inky just reminded me to remind you that the amazing BeautifulSoup library is needed to run this program. You should have it anyway!
