The following instructions make it easy to post to Twitter and Jaiku from the command line. The instructions were copied from the article "Ubuntu Unleashed: Howto Twitter From the Command Line in Ubuntu!" [ubuntu-unleashed.com] and modified to post via Rorbuilder's ProjectX API.

sudo apt-get install curl

sudo gedit /usr/bin/jaitwit

Now Paste this in gEdit and simply replace "YourUsername" with your username and "YourPassword" with your twitter passwd, then replace the Jaiku variables (YourUsername, YourPassword, YourCity, YourAccessKey) and ctrl-s to save, then alt-F4 to exit!

echo Message Sent!

Then chmod for exec privileges:

chmod +x /usr/bin/jaitwit

Then from the CLI type jaitwit followed by your message.

jaitwit "message here without the quotes"

In this example the file we want to delete is a non-empty directory called sample.

  require 'fileutils' 

  FileUtils.rm_r 'sample'
