  4. @ilya What are the multilingual aspect? It looks the downloaded xml files encodes all unicode in unicode numbers. Can this be done better?
  5. @ilya Sorry! Didn't copy/paste over that line: mysize=`du -ks $mydate_folder.tar.gz | awk '{print $1}'` Updated it: http://is.gd/1Ed6X
  6. @forvo It would be great to add words we searched for to custum personal lists. You could then expand this feature in many interesting ways

  8. @dacort np, thanks again for posting that command!
  9. @dacort are you getting 100 tweets per page from your curl command? Looking at the XML it downloads, I get only 20 <status> entries per page
  10. @Vestjyden hey hey!
  11. To get 3,200 tweets, you could to use [1-160] instead of [1-32] in the curl command. Problem: Max 150 requests per hour. Need to split it.
  12. Actually, am I wrong or does that curl from my last post download only seem to grab 20*32=640 tweets?
