[BOUNTY] Project: Private Key Label Printer for BitAddress.org

The Bounty: One bag of 500 stickerable Aluminum Casascius Coins, including shipping.  These have the Bitcoin logo on the front, and a blank space for a sticker (up to 1.15" / 29mm in diameter) for you to print the content of your choice.

The Project: Fork BitAddress.org so that it can be used for printing full sheets of private key labels.

The Labels: http://www.onlinelabels.com/OL1025.htm



How it should work:

  • The user enters label count wide and high per page (in this example, 6 wide and 8 high)
  • The user enters width of label and horizontal distance between labels (as well as height and vertical distance)
  • The user enters a horizontal and vertical positioning offset (so it works with their particular printer)
  • The user should be able to print a sheet of private keys after having bought the product linked to above.

In addition, there should be an easy way for the user to copy a list of the Bitcoin Addresses to the clipboard, so he can bulk-fund the addresses with the amount of his choice.  The list should be available in two formats: one being a simple CRLF-delimited list of addresses, and the other being a preformatted command for bitcoind to fund all the coins in a single transaction, example:

Code:
sendmany "" "{\"1Address1\": 0.01, \"1Address2\": 0.01, \"1Address3\": 0.01}"

WHAT SHOULD GO ON THE LABELS:

This should be possibly up to user's discretion.  They will be a tight fit.  Some users will want QR codes and others will rather save the space.  Some users will want the Bitcoin address on the labels, others might view that as unnecessary.  I would think most users would want to enter a denomination to be printed, since the aluminum coins don't come pre-denominated.  I am open to any reasonable interpretation of what a user is likely to want.
