Chromnitweet is a Google Chrome (or Chromium) extension that acts as a Twitter client, allowing the user to post tweet (status update or direct message) directly from the Omnibox (Omnibar, awesome bar, URL bar, location bar, etc.) with the syntax "tw [some string of 140 or less characters]". https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/ofhffnelacegjkgcbohojhebkbehikep?hl=en-US Useless fact: Chromnitweet is a portmanteau of Chrome, Omnibox and Tweet. INSTALLATION The build system depends on GNU make, Zip, Java and the Closure compiler[1]. You probably need to be on Linux or Mac to use the Makefile as is. The compiler should be at $HOME/bin/compiler.jar but you can specify a new location by running: make COMPILER=/path/to/compiler.jar If you don't feel like installing Java or the compiler, just run: make debug If you don't feel like installing make, run: cp background.js background.min.js cat chrome_ex_oauthsimple.js chrome_ex_oauth.js >chrome_ex_oauth.min.js If you're on Windows, I don't know what to tell you.
