mytwitter is a simple python twitter application. I wrote it for two reasons:
1. No existing twitter app supports the Lists API
2. An excuse to learn Python
While I doubt it will be terribly useful for anyone other than me, feel free to take it for a spin and let me know how it goes. You'll need the following:
* PMW (Python mega-widgets)
* TKinter
* The latest dev version of python-twitter, along with my patch (included here)
For python-twitter, you can download and install it with:
hg clone https://python-twitter.googlecode.com/hg/ python-twitter
cd python-twitter
hg update dev
hg patch -u "Patrick Wiggins <jpwigan@gmail.com>" ../mytwitter/python-twitter-GetListStatuses.patch
python build.py build
python build.py install --user
This will install python-twitter in your ~/.local/lib directory, which python 2.6 will automatically include in PYTHONPATH.
