| − | TwitVim uses [http://curl.haxx.se/ cURL] to communicate with Twitter. Alternatively, you can also configure TwitVim to perform network I/O using Vim's Perl, Python, Ruby, or Tcl interfaces. In the latter configuration, TwitVim will use commonly-available http libraries for the scripting language. There are advantages and disadvantages to both configurations. It's faster to use Perl, Python, Ruby, or Tcl for network I/O because TwitVim won't have to run an external program. However, if the Twitter API becomes non-responsive, it's easier to abort the command by killing the cURL process. |
