Twitter-xauth is a project mainly written in OBJECTIVE-C and C, it's free.

A simple twitter client that allows you to authorize with xauth, and post status updates

twitter-xauth

This is an extremely simple twitter client for Mac OS X and iOS, which uses xauth for authentication. The only other feature provided are status updates. I created this project because I wanted something small and simple, and need only to be able to do status updates on twitter. I'm posting it in hopes that it might be of use to someone else.

See twitter-xauth.m for example usage. Fill in values for CONSUMER_KEY, CONSUMER_SECRET, TWITTER_USERNAME, and TWITTER_PASSWORD. Compiles on Mac OS X using gnu make.

This code is possible thanks to documentation and code examples found on the following websites:
