I was shown a Win32 CLI for Twitter, and I didn’t like how it was done, so I made one.

Pretty simple to use.

Vista: Extract the two files to your home directory

XP: Extract the two files to your Windows directory, or another directory in your system’s PATH variable

Win98: Extract to a directory in your system’s PATH variable

Edit the twit.bat file and replace “yourusername” with your username, and “yourpassword” with your password.

Quick Twit: Start-Run (Windows Key + R), type twit followed by your message. No quotes required

Example: twit I just twitted from the command line… because I can. I like useless tools.

Disclaimer: If you don’t know how to edit a batch file, don’t know what a batch file is, or feel like you shouldn’t be putting your username and password into a batch file, don’t know what a PATH variable is, please move on. This is not for you, at all, and I wouldn’t want to make anybody uncomfortable.
