"""A script for downloading (crawling) tweets by their IDs. 
A useful tool for creating datasets of tweets, as requested in popular research challenges on Twitter data 
(e.g., SemEval, #Microposts and TREC Microblog Track). 
It requires Twython (it optionally requires bz2file for compression).
This code is in https://gist.github.com/giacbrd/b996cfe2f1d24752f23bd119fdd678f2"""
