I've written 'toot', a very simple command-line utility to allow Mastodon posts to be sent from the command-line: https://www.npmjs.com/package/toot

@glynn_bird I love that the "toot" name wasn't taken on npm. How lucky can you get? :)

@glynn_bird Awesome, and it looks like I'm the first one to open an issue for it. :D

@kdy Fixed in version 1.0.1. Do your npm install again and you should be good to go.

@glynn_bird for a more featureful command line tool, see tootstream https://github.com/magicalraccoon/tootstream

@glynn_bird would be great to have it in Telegram too

@gael totally agree. It's super handy to have command-line access to these tools if you're:
a) someone who is on command-line all day , and or
b) wants to automate the messages programmatically

@glynn_bird It'd be cool if it could print out some recent timeline toots :D

@glynn_bird

if there's ever a terminal interface for Mastodon it'll be (paradoxically) easier for me to get my wife to use it, because she's so shell-oriented it isn't funny
