This repository contains a few scripts I wrote that use the Selenium module
for webscraping. formfiller.py contains code for creating FormFiller objects 
that configure Selenium to send specified text to forms on a selected website;
form_filelr_driver.py defines a command-line interface for creating such
objects; and clipboard2pastebin.py is a simple utility to generate Pastebin
links to input text.

Usage Notes

Once created, a FormFiller object may be modified using the add, remove,
clear, and update methods.n the Python console. When creating FormFiller objects on the command
line, note that the storage argument takes a relative path to the intended
shelve storage file from Python's working directory. If the object appears not
to have been saved to the correct file, a working directory issue is probably
the reason.

clipboard2pastebin expects the environment variable WEBDRIVER to be set to the
path of your installation of Webdriver, and FormFiller is easier to use if so
configured.
