Update Twitter from irssi

Filed under: Linux, Perl, Programming, Twitter, irssi — Tags: , , — sontek @ 11:10 pm

I wrote a quick little perl script/irssi plugin that allows you to update twitter from irssi. It also has autocompletion for names from your friends and follower list. You can get it here: http://devtoo.net/svn/twitter/twitter.pl

To use this script place it in ~/.irssi/scripts and then type /load twitter.pl in irssi

Usage:
/twitter u I’m updating twitter from irssi
/twitter d sontek I’m direct messasging sontek from irssi

DISCLAIMER: First perl script I’ve ever written, i’m sure I’ve done things wrong.

  1. Eh, it’s perl, so if it works, you did it right.
