A Twitter client with a curses interface.

turses: a Twitter client written in Python
==========================================

A Twitter client with a curses interface written in Python. Various parts of the codebase
are borrowed from the `Tyrs`_ project by `Nicolas Paris`_.

.. _`Tyrs`: http://tyrs.nicosphere.net
.. _`Nicolas Paris`: http://github.com/Nic0

The goal of the project is to build a full-featured Twitter client:

- one that is fully customizable;
- usable with multiple UIs (curses, gtk, qt, etc.);
- plugged to different API backends (currently is using `python-twitter`_); and
- having all the Twitter API capabilities with some spice.
