I do not know how to pass this script through the CMD

Question

I've instaled this script writen in python to delete tweets but i do not understand how to translate it so i can use it on windows

$ tweet-delete \
    --consumer_key=<consumer_key> \
    --consumer_secret=<consumer_secret> \
    --access_token_key=<access_token_key> \
    --access_token_secret=<access_token_secret> \
    --delete_older_than="7 days" \
    --delete_everything_after=2019-01-01
...

Answer 1

The line continuation character for cmd.exe is a CARET '^'.

C:\> tweet-delete ^
    --consumer_key=<consumer_key> ^
    --consumer_secret=<consumer_secret> ^
    --access_token_key=<access_token_key> ^
    --access_token_secret=<access_token_secret> ^
    --delete_older_than="7 days" ^
    --delete_everything_after=2019-01-01

Also, cmd.exe does not recognize a shebang as the first line of a script. You will need to specify python tweet-delete.py ... or have .py setup as an association to run python.exe.
