bsense
Runs a search on Booksense for a given ISBN (switch: isbn) and zip code (switch: zip). Booksense will try to find the closest bookstore that lists the book with the searched ISBN in its inventory. Pretty rudimentary but sometimes kind of handy. Note that Booksense sets cookies, I don't know how this will affect the commend but i think maybe not at all. Example: bsense -isbn 1593760272 -zip 02134 will look for a bookstore near Allston, MA carrying Wendell Berry's "That Distant Land."
