Welcome to Twidge. Twidge is a tool for interacting with microblogging sites such as Twitter and StatusNet.

Twidge is a full command-line client. It is designed to be useful when you’re sitting at a shell prompt. It’s also designed to work well with the Unix/POSIX/Linux shell scripting environment. It produces output in well-formed and easily-parsed ways, and has various features for working with piped data.

It can be used to:

• Simply update your own status and following your friends
• Setting status based on system events
• Receiving status updates via email, and sending your friends and your replies to email
• Scheduling status updates for the future
• The sky’s the limit!

This software was written by John Goerzen. If you like it, you can send a few dollars my way via my tip jar, though that is certainly optional and doesn’t buy you anything.
