#!/usr/bin/perl -w
#-----------------------------------
# Script Name: overduenotices.pl
# Script Version: 1.0
# Date:  2003/9/7
# Author:  Stephen Hedges (shedges at skemotah.com)
# Description: 
#	This script runs a Koha report of items that
#	are between 7 and 30 days overdue and generates
#       a file that may be dumped to a printer.  The time period
#	may be changed by editing the SQL statement handle
#	prepared in line 52.  The actual wording of the overdue
#	notices may be changed by editing the $notice variable
#	in line 101.  The current notice text is formatted to
#	fit the standard 34-line 'Speedimailer' form.
# Revision History:
#    1.0  2003/9/7: original version
