Output is shown on screen, and when finished, a csv file is created containing all of the captured tweets, usernames, times, and location. Is built to run for extended periods with minimal growth in RAM usage as number of captured tweets increases. Uses both twitter4j and Open-CSV.

Thanks to Jason's solid work, any reporter following the use of a hashtag in real time or seeking to trace the use of terms and phrases on Twitter now has an easy-to-use desktop tool that collects almost limitless data from the Twitter API and creates CSV dumps. If you've been too busy to learn the necessary programming to scrape Twitter, this is a major boost. Jason is also highly responsive and knowledgeable -- very glad I found MyTwitterScraper.
