Good point - I think you are expected to stay within the bounds of your
license agreement....

I have three simple Perforce scripts to share. They have been in use
at eGroups.com (now Yahoo Groups) for quite some time. 

For fun: Our Perforce tree has 36,037 files in the depot, 21
'modules', 15,013 files in our most active module, gzip compressed
checkpoint is 49megs, we are on changenumber 41711, we have 644
labels, 6 branches. We store all files for the eGroups.com/Yahoo
Groups website including C,Python,HTML,HTML-template,I18N
translations, and image files. The depot was started on 1999/11 using
cvs2p4 to import 28303 changes from our CVS tree (started 1996/11).

findPList.py - This script looks through all of the pending
    changelists and notifies the owner (a) that they have
    pending changelists, and (b) they should clean them up
    before they lose some useful work. (we run this once
    a day)

findOldClients.py - This scripts looks through all the client
    specs and emails the owners of clients which have not
    been used in a specified period of time. (we run this
    once a week) Very useful when people are using the p4co
    script.

p4co - a simple script which auto-writes client specs for
    a "cvs co" style module checkout. Much simpler than
    teaching people "p4 client". We used this for production
    and other non-engineers who had access to the depot. 
    Some engineers prefer it also.
