Hi -- I'm a new maintainer python-snippets. Your snippet works great for identi.ca, but if I uncomment the twitter lines there's a syntax error for SECURE= . What should SECURE be set to? Or should I just remove the commented-out twitter lines and commit it just for the identi.ca part?

It's been a while since that. But I guess it should be

 # SECURE=False

Quite likely that doesn't work anymore as I don't think Twitter supports that kind of authentication anymore so you'll may want to remove all the Twitter related stuff.

Okay, I'll remove the twitter stuff. They broke a lot of python_twitter code too when they disabled basic authentication. The rest looks fine. I'm having some trouble figuring out launchpad and merges -- all the merge requests for python-snippets are against Jono's branch, and there doesn't seem to be any way to close them even when I approve the merges, but I'll check this in as soon as I get that figured out. Thanks for the contribution!
