Detailed explanation

write_tweet.js

This script allows you to post tweets with text and (up to) four images. If the text is longer than 280, the script will automatically organize them in a thread :)

usage:

 $ node write_tweets.js "tweet text in quotes!" path/to/img1_(optional) path/to/img2_(optional) path/to/img3_(optional) path/to/img4_(optional)

follow_back.js

This script will follow back all the people in your list, except people you list in variable

var enemy_list = []

Twitter API limits 1000 follow requests per day and the script will check only your 5k first followers and friends. For more than that, check out about cursoring in Docs page.

unfollow.js

This script will unfollow everyone that does not follow you back and is not in your friend_list in variable

var friend_list = []
