An automator script to gather AWS session credentials from a web-based provider ...

An automator script to gather AWS session credentials from a web-based provider and paste them in '~/.aws/credentials' for local testing and administration.

It's saved me an insane amount of time lately.

That said, my second biggest time saver has been saving language reference and library docs to my local drive:

    #! /bin/bash
    wget --recursive --level=5 --convert-links --page-requisites --wait=1 --random-wait --timestamping --no-parent $@

    local_docs.sh http://docs.python.org/2.7/library/

Near-instant rendering, available anytime my computer is powered on, and they still link to the external docs when I have to follow some esoteric link.
