Hello Hackers,

Thank you all for making the session-1 of the course successful. With this mail there is a pdf attached which gives you details on the challenge you need to face. Do have fun shooting it down.

Just a hint for everyone working on this, zenity doesnt support
multiple input boxes in one window. It is a good starting point
however, I am now going to try it in http://linux.pte.hu/~pipas/gtkdialog/index.html

That was a good clue by Hobs, but the issue is reported here here long back, but the fix is not yet offered, so hopefully curious hackers of this group might put a patch for that wish you all the very best with this challenge again.

Another great resource for gtkdialog information is actually in this
forum post: http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?t=38608
The googleable docs are not very useful, and no manpage, but this has
links to the good documentation.

still having trouble building gtk, found this in troubleshooting the
errors I was getting on a debian based system http://www.gtkforums.com/about2469.html
Makes me want to switch to a different package :)!

Ok, so I spent an hour and sat down and made the dialog boxes with
gtkdialog(a horrible pain to install) but guess what?! Twitter doesn't
support basic authentication anymore and you have to use oauth to get
it working. Sweet huh?
Anyway, here is my code and a screenshot, I gave up when I realized
there was no way to post to twitter without installing and using ruby
gems or something like that.

To be finished: just change some buttons around, and store defaults in
config file, and make the remember me button do so.

Kudos Good job 
Twitter stopped basic auth in august, so now we must implement oauth in bash or help the curl developers in contributing

hehe, I will see if I can figure out the oauth stuff for bash, or if
it just requires some further input to work with curl.
