    Or if you haven't added gems.github.com as a permanent source:

    sudo gem install giraffesoft-tweet --source=http://gems.github.com

    I'm sure I saw this somewhere else, but I can't find it now.

    And what about setting the user agent? I'd like people to know that I'm leet when I post from the command line! ;-)

    I thought I had seen it too, but I couldn't seem to find something, so I rolled my own.

    As for the user agent, I just applied to twitter for that feature. Hopefully they'll accept soon :)

    I wonder how many other developers have built their own little app to do the same thing. Now all you need is a way to grab tweets into a log and tail it, and you're in business...

    My twitter gem (http://twitter.rubyforge.org/) does it from the command line. That is most likely where you guys saw it. It also supports multiple accounts and sets the source your posting from to "Twitter Gem". There are screenshots and such on the url I mentioned above.
