Here are some cool scripts found on the web:
- pat2pdf will take a US patent number and generate a PDF document of the patent for you. Google patents can also do the same, but it is missing many new patent applications. (Btw it’s wonderful to go through some of the old inventions from the last century.)
- mb2md takes a mbox and converts it to Maildir
- That _svndiff script, which makes svn diff generate an annotated diff
