The script in its current state will not work. I plan on updating it once my wiki account is verified, but until then here it is below:
Note: This script utilizes keychain scripting which is only in Snow Leopard (10.6) & below. If you use Lion or above, the "twitter_login" variable must be hardcoded into the script, similar to the current version posted (username:password). ie: (set twitter_login *to* quoted form *of* "username:password"). I believe his security issue can be circumvented using Daniel Jalkut's "Usable Keychain Scripting For Lion" http://www.red-sweater.com/blog/2035/usable-keychain-scripting-for-lion, but I don't have a Lion box to test it out on. I've also added a few things: - Growl integration for success/failure - Character counter (will growl you if the tweet is too long) - Better character encoding (python function to help prevent false positives). I don't take any credit for any of this, they're all functions copy-pasted & groomed from other sources.
