Fourmilab ISBNiser

Fourmilab ISBNiser is a command line utility which can be run on any system which supports the Perl language. It accepts arguments which can be either ISBN-13s or ISBN-10s, with or without delimiters, checks them for validity, and displays the ISBN in all valid forms including, if configured, an Amazon associate link ready to go ka-ching into your reading budget every time a visitor to your site clicks it.
