  Description     : A bash script that downloads and creates a PDF of a U.S. patent given the number

Given the patent number as a command-line parameter, this script fetches 
the pages of a U.S. patent document from the USPTO patent database and 
converts them into a single PDF file.

It would be very easy to package, is useful for people who work with
patents, and everything the script uses is already in Debian.
