command line twitter updater - feature request

for those that sumble upon this post, here’s a link to the utility that i am about to talk about:

http://phalacee.com/index.php?page=development&section=app&development=19

now, on to the feature that i would love to see built into this baby. i don’t think it was was made open source, so this is my plea to the developer, jason. ;)

wouldn’t it be awesome to be able to pass in the username and password of the twitter user you wanted to do a post for? currently, [as you know] the command line twitter updater requires a file that specifies the username and password. it would be awesome if that became optional, so that my command line entry would go from:

  • twitter “hello world”

to either of the following

  • twitter -u MyUserName -p MyPassword “hello world”
  • twitter “hello world”

that feature would be awesome for those of us that manage multiple group twitter profiles and would like to do a quick - but different - chirp for each group! plus it allows for the “default” user too, which would be my personal profile in my case.

anyway, think about it :) or there is always the option of opening up the source so that others could hack at you cool tool.

cheers.
