Update your Twtter status with a command line in "Run" dialog


Yep, you can actually update your twitter status by typing it to the "Run" dialog. However, you need a special tool to do so. It's called Twitter CLI. You can download it here.

Alright, after you downloaded it, you need to install the tool. Here's how:

1. Extract the contents of the Twitter CLI.zip file into your Windows folder, which is located at:

 C:\\Windows

2. Open the twitter.bat file in Notepad. (Right click -> Edit) and enter your Twitter username and password in the right fields.

set username=YourTwitterUsername
set password=YourTwitterPassword 

for example:

set username=MrTowel
set password=123456

Save the file and close Notepad.

Now you are able to Tweet with Windows Command Line:

1. Press Windows key + R for the "Run" dialog. (or press start and search for "Run")

2. Type in following:

twitter ""

Note: Enter your status between the quotes. For example: twitter "today I learned how to update my twitter status in windows run dialog"
  
Also, the quotation marks won't be needed UNLESS you're including an URL in your message.
