Updated turl : command line url shortener (with bit.ly support)

with one comment

Just a quick note, but I update turl last night. turl is a command line tool for Mac OS X that uses online services to shorten urls.

There are a couple of minor changes, but the main new feature is that I added support for bit.ly. Here are the changes:

  • Added support for bit.ly
  • Made bit.ly service default (urltea appears to be down / gone)
  • Add some error checking to make sure a URL is returned

You can download turl, and the source from here.
