Revisiting Twitter clients

[Linux for blind general discussion]

Tim here.  A while back I tried a smattering of CLI Twitter clients
and was pretty disappointed.  Rainbowstream was the least bad of
them, so that's where I'd start.

https://github.com/orakaro/rainbowstream

It required the ability to do an OAUTH credential thing, but I think
it can be completed using an external browser (such as one on a phone
or on a different computer) since all it needs to do is get
confirmation from Twitter that the login is legit.
