I’ve created a “Twitter” gadget. I have to make this easier to do, but at least it *works*

Here’re some examples of calling the Perl:

ep=`./momento Wall "Hello you" $ep`

./momento -d Wall

The first usage creates an application “Wall” on the frame. The UUID for the application is based on a unique string, so each time you update “Wall” it will update the same gadget on the frame.

It also outputs the endpoint on the frame for future reference. If the endpoint is present then it doesn’t delete previous instances of the app, or create a new one, it just updates the content.

The second usage deletes the application from the frame.

Obviously you can see now that interfacing bash to the frame now becomes trivial.

Now I want to make the frame appear as an instance of Growl.

This will involve broadcasting my existence via Bonjour. I haven’t played with that before.
