NameError: global name 'Twitter' is not defined

the code is:

from twitter import *



CONSUMER_KEY = ''
CONSUMER_SECRET = ''
OAUTH_TOKEN = ''
OAUTH_SECRET = ''


t = Twitter(
                auth=OAuth(OAUTH_TOKEN, OAUTH_SECRET,
                CONSUMER_KEY, CONSUMER_SECRET)
            )




since_ID = -1
max_ID = 0

while(since_ID != max_ID):
    search = t.search.tweets(q = k, count = 100, since_id = max_ID)

    print len(search['statuses'])
    if len(search['statuses']) == 0:
        print 'end'
        break


    since_ID = search['search_metadata']['since_id_str']
    max_ID = search['search_metadata']['max_id_str']

Just a guess. Is it possible that you've got another twitter library installed? I mean, import twitter works for you, but there is not twitter.Twitter which should be there, if you are really using python twitter tools.

For example, python-twitter doesn't have twitter.Twitter, but has twitter.Api which does not exist in python twitter tools. It seems that you've got python-twitter, not python twitter tools.
