Auto Tweets : Twitt Generator

Here is a very simple script (2 PHP files) that will allow you to send tweets automatically with a PHP server (PHP5) !  This is an easy way to gain time, of course you shouldn't spam Twitter, just add your own code in auto.php to choose what and how often you want to post... With the second file, you may also use the other functions, see the readme file to learn how to use it.

auto.php
<?

include "twitter.lib.php";


$twitter_user = '';
$twitter_pass = '';

$twitt = 'This is a test';

$twitter = new Twitter($twitter_user, $twitter_pass);

$twitter->updateStatus($twitt);

?>

Twitter interface class
Justin Poliey <jdp34(at)njit.edu>
http://github.com/jdp/twitterlibphp
First release Nov 26 2007
Newest release Aug 14 2008

This is a simple interface to the Twitter API.

I've tried to keep as close as possible to the real API
calls (some had to be changed due to ambiguity), but all
of the arguments are as they are in the official docs.

For documentation, check the project wiki:

    http://github.com/jdp/twitterlibphp/wikis

Usage:
$twitter = new Twitter("username", "password");
$public_timeline_xml = $twitter->getPublicTimeline("xml");

Methods:
getPublicTimeline($format [, $since_id])
getFriendsTimeline($format [, $id [, $since ]])
getUserTimeline($format [, $id [, $count [, $since ]]])
showStatus($format, $id)
updateStatus($status)
destroyStatus($format, $id)
getReplies($format [, $page ])
getFriends($format [, $id ])
getFollowers($format [, $lite ])
getFeatured($format)
showUser($format [, $id [, $email ]])
getMessages($format [, $since [, $since_id [, $page ]]])
getSentMessages($format [, $since [, $since_id [, $page ]]])
newMessage($format, $user, $text)
destroyMessage($format, $id)
createFriendship($format, $id)
destroyFriendship($format, $id)
friendshipExists($format, $user_a, $user_b)
verifyCredentials([$format])
endSession()
updateLocation($format, $location)
updateDeliveryDevice($format, $device)
rateLimitStatus($format)
getArchive($format [, $page ])
getFavorites($format [, $id [, $page ]])
createFavorite($format, $id)
destroyFavorite($format, $id)
follow($format, $id)
leave($format, $id)
createBlock($format, $id)
destroyBlock($format, $id)
test($format)
downtimeSchedule($format)
lastStatusCode()
lastAPICall()
