+// This is a script to retrieve all the supercollider twits
+// Original code by Eric Skogen, with some tweaks by Marije Baalman (nescivi)
+// =====================================================================
+
+// NOTE: to use this script you need to have installed the Quark: XML
+// See the Quarks helpfile on how to install this Quark.
+// You also need to have "curl" installed on your system.

+// (do not be alarmed. all part of the show, my friends)
+// oh and yeah you'll need the XML Quark
+// (http://quarks.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/quarks/XML/)
+// and it only works if you can run Pipe
