* Using environmental variables will override the config:
GNUSOCIALPATH - path to config file (default ~/.go-quitter)
GNUSOCIALNODE, GNUSOCIALPASS, GNUSOCIALUSER - account info
* Want to use a SOCKS proxy?
Set the SOCKS environmental variable. Here are a few examples:
SOCKS=true go-quitter -socks # short for 127.0.0.1:1080
SOCKS=tor go-quitter -socks # short for 127.0.0.1:9050
SOCKS=socks5://127.0.0.1:22000 go-quitter -socks
* -flags can be placed before a [command]. Here are the available flags:
-socks Don't connect without proxy
-http Don't use https
-unsafe Don't validate TLS cert

If you have Go toolchain installed you can build and install it yourself with:
GOPATH=/tmp/go go get -v -u -d github.com/aerth/go-quitter/cmd/go-quitter
cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/aerth/go-quitter/cmd/go-quitter
CGO_ENABLED=0 make && su -c 'make install'
Or use go get:
GOBIN=$HOME/bin/ CGO_ENABLED=0 go get -v -u -x -ldflags='-s -w' github.com/aerth/go-quitter/cmd/go-quitter
To avoid storing the password in plaintext, go-quitter saves an encrypted config file at ~/.go-quitter, if it gets messed up just delete it and make a new one. You can switch config files on the fly using the environmental variable GNUSOCIALPATH.
go-quitter config
GNUSOCIALPATH=gnusocial.de go-quitter config
GNUSOCIALPATH=gnusocial.no go-quitter config
GNUSOCIALPATH=gnusocial.se go-quitter config
Next time you run it, it will ask for your config password. I like to keep it blank so I just hit ENTER.
When running go-quitter with no arguments, a list of commands is printed.
