</div>Sure.<br>
<br>
My internet service provider has a web page to tell me the current<br>
usage, and it works by prompting in a form, then issuing a cookie that<br>
is used to validate further requests.<br>
<br>
For this I used twill-sh in a shell script as follows:<br>
<br>
twill-sh <<EOF >/dev/null 2>/dev/null<br>
go <a href="https://example.com/usage/daily/" target="_blank">https://example.com/usage/daily/</a><br>
fv Login username quozl<br>
fv Login password qwertyuiop<br>
submit<br>
save_html /var/tmp/usage.html<br>
EOF<br>
<br>
The remains of my script processed the usage.html file to get the byte<br>
counts.<br>
