|
|
|
|
<operation>:
|
|

|

|
fetch_tweet_only
|
|
<TARGET> is either the full URL of the tweet, or its ID.

|
|
thread including replies.

|
|
|
|
-n, --number
|
|
Set the number of tweets to fetch, when getting a feed. Default is 50.
|
|
Setting this flag means you will get at least that many "tweets plus retweets" from that user (unless of
|
|
course they don't have that many). The total amount of tweets returned will be larger, because quoted tweets
|
|
won't count toward the limit.
