domreg tools

does anyone have forms and scripts to automate domain registration?  what i
mean by that is

  o a form for the registrant to fill out and email (and/or web page)
    i have appended what i currently use

  o a script to
    - extract person, and domain info and create ripe format objects
    - create nic handles if needed
    - extract server info and create dns database entry texts

  o etc.

i have the form (appended) and some elisp and scripting to make a dns file
entry.  but now i want to go the whois path.

all help appreciated.
