Esta mensagem de erro se deve ao fato de que o Twitter precisa do OAuth para autenticação . Dê uma olhada no TTYtter se você não se importa com um aplicativo Perl:
Noooo, not another Twitter client! Yes, another Twitter client. The difference here is that you're dealing with a multi-functional, fully 100% text, Perl command line client.
- In interactive mode, it is a fully interactive client with asynchronous background updates and commands. Use it over telnet, ssh or even a dummy terminal. Supports Streaming API, ANSI colour, UTF-8, hashtags and Twitter Search!
- Works within your favourite environment: use a compatible readline library (like our own bespoke Term::ReadLine::TTYtter), or modify prompt and input methods for many popular window and session managers. Or don't: basic editing and screen management features built-in.
- From the command line, use it to update your Twitter in shell scripts, from cron, and so on.
- Security: Supports Twitter OAuth and HTTP Basic Authentication, and SSL where supported by your user agent.
- Notification support with Growl and libnotify (and extendable to others via the API).
- Geolocation support: hand your GPS coordinates to TTYtter for any application.
- Lists support, including fast creation and modification, and merging lists with your timeline as "custom timelines."
- Supports Twitter-alike APIs such as StatusNet and Identi.ca.
- Supports standard timelines and automatically fetches direct messages, and optionally replies/mentions, and runs queries against the Search API and incorporates them into your timeline as well.
- New and old re-tweet support.
- Write and use your own custom extensions!
- Run detached in -daemon mode, and make your own Twitter bot!
O TTYtter foi descontinuado. O desenvolvimento agora continua na bifurcação, oysttyer .
