OAuth workaround for xbox and linux #32

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
Xbox and Linux with text-based browsers won't support OAuth. However, I can 
provide these users with a link on the project's page that will take them 
through the approval process. The end of the flow will produce a PIN number 
on Twitter's site which then can be entered in the appropriate place in 
xbTweet.

http://svn.python.org/view/python/trunk/Lib/webbrowser.py?view=log takes care 
of the
problem on linux

You just supply the newer webbrowser.py with the script, or we could just launch
firefox (since that is 99% surely installed on linux)

XBOX and Linux users have a OAuth workaround now available. 
http://www.xbmcblog.com/xbTweet/OAuth.aspx generates a full OAuth request with 
Twitter 
and shows the PIN code on the user's screen.
