The dmGet
and dmSent
functions will return a list of
directMessage
objects. The former will retrieve DMs
sent to the user while the latter retrieves messages sent from the user.
The dmDestroy
function takes a directMessage
object (perhaps from either dmGet
or dmSent
) and will
delete it from the Twitter server.
The dmSend
function will send a message to another Twitter user.
