DESCRIPTION

This script fixes the date code in the description of fines. Previously, the format of this was determined by which script you were using to update fines (see the -m option)

--help

Prints a brief usage message and exits.

--man

Prints a full manual page and exits.

-n

Process only a certain amount of fines. If this option is left off, this script will process everything.

-m

This required option tells the script what format your dates are currently in. If you were previously using the fines2.pl or fines-sanop.pl script to update your fines, they will be in 'metric' format. If you were using the fines-ll.pl script, they will be in 'us' format. After this script is finished, they will be in whatever format your 'dateformat' system preference specifies.

-d

Run in debugging mode; this prints out a lot of information and should be used only if there is a problem and with the '-n' option.
