I seem to get a lot of library fines because i forget to take books
back

This is a dumb script which attempts to reduce those fines by renewing
books automatically through the sisri library interface at the
uninversity of bath (it is currently specific to bath, but could be
fixed for other sites with similar interfaces fairly easily. 


Installation: 

You need WWW::Mechanize installed

put the script somewhere

Add the script to you crontab so that it runs every day or something: 

5 0 * * * /home/occ/linux/bin/renew_library_books UID PIN occ@cs.bath.ac.uk

The script takes 2 or 3 arguments, the first is your library user ID,
the second is your pin and the third is optional, and is the email
address to send notifications to, if this isn't specified then
notifications of renewals are printed to stdout
