After I saw the script made by felipe, for twitting basecamp TODOs, I made another one (more simpler) in Python, it's just for twitt from console. So, for instance, I just can do Alt+F2 in KDE (or directly in a console) and write twupdater "Exams are out!".

Not an existential thing, but it has give me some phreak time. And while I had the chance to trying http in python.

Here is:

twupdater_v02.tar.gz

Update: Now the script ask user and pass if them is not configured.
Last update: Furthermore, now checks user and pass before send status.
