Save books out of Safari Books Online

From http://objectivesea.tumblr.com/post/9033067018/safaribooks

This is hard. I spent way too much time figuring this out, because I was annoyed that a book I bought (Addison-Wesley) was available online for free, except only for 45 days after which payment was required. So I made this hack... probably useful to no one else, but here it is.

Requirements:

1. iPad.
2. Safari To Go (the Safari Books Online iPad app).

EMPMYMIP: Easily Maintain a PyPI Mirror of Your Important Packages!

Status

EMPMYMIP seems to mostly kind of work for me. It might even do the same for you!

The implementation is kind of a huge hack, though, and it might very well

# This LOOKS pretty straightforward, but it took awhile to sort out issues with
# py2cairo and pygobject, so I hope I've saved you some time :-)
#
# This assumes you already subscribe to a nice clean virtualenvwrapper workflow
# -- see https://gist.github.com/771394 if you need advice on getting there.
# There are some optional dependencies omitted, so if you're going to be doing
# heavy development with these libs, you may want to look into them.
#
# We go to some configure option pains to avoid polluting the system-level
# Python, and `brew link`ing Cairo which is keg-only by default.
