Terminal on Facebook Messenger

###TFM ver. 1.9 Allows user to take full control of the terminal of their computer through Facebook's messaging service.

##Disclamer

I shall not collect users' content or information, or otherwise access Facebook, using automated means (such as harvesting bots, robots, spiders, or scrapers) without our prior permission.

##Run To use the script to full extent, make sure that you keep it at the home directory. Run it like this :

python ~/main.py

Enter your facebook username and password when prompted.

Alternatively, you can automate authentication. Create settings.txt file in repo's folder, and write email and password there in following format:

[main]
email = [email protected]
password = passwordwithoutquotes

Wait till it sets up. To make sure that it has setup, your url should be 'https://facebook.com/messages/*your own username*.

To send the commands, search for your own name on the messenger and send commands to it.

While using the set ... as ... command, you can create a file named commands.txt and write the Alias name in the following format (seperated by single space):

Alias_command_without_quotes  actual_command_without_quotes

The file has been included in the repo, which has some useful commands for Mac.
