README for farefetch 0.9
farefetch fetches fare information from the website brfares.com
(<http://www.brfares.com/>) - this data is copyright to Rail
Settlement Plan, Ltd., and released under a CC-BY 2.0 Licence
(<http://data.atoc.org/licence-restrictions/>).
Use is simple - execute the file farefetch giving it arguments as
follows:
./farefetch ORIGIN DESTINATION [ -r RAILCARD ]
This will search for fares between the stations ORIGIN and
DESTINATION, possibly applying discounts applicable to the railcard
RAILCARD. If any of the three arguments is ambiguous, the program will
say so, and give a list of possibilities with unambiguous equivalents.
It should then be re-run with the appropriate possibility.
If you want (slightly) more information, run with the -e (expert)
switch.
It is possible to filter the returned list of tickets:
use -c [1ST|STD] to select first (1ST) or standard (STD) class
use -t TYPE [TYPE ...] where TYPE is any of SINGLE, RETURN, or SEASON,
to select only that type of ticket
