do shell script ("curl " & this_URL & " -o " & POSIX path of
(((path to desktop) as string) & "PuzzlesToDo:" & myFileName))
I get this error:
If your folder's name is really "PuzzlesToDo", then I don't know.
Otherwise, I would trying adding "quoted form of " before "POSIX path".

just tried it out; IT WORKS ! with the add-on from Emmanuel
actually this is a kind of script that I have been looking for for years !
and now i just appears !
i have a question:
do shell script ("curl " & this_URL & " -o " & POSIX path of (((path
to desktop) as string) & "PuzzlesToDo:" & myFileName))
the" do shell script" and curl and this_url and even -o I kinda
understand
and also the reasoning behind the POISX and path stuff
but
where is the syntax for what in reality is:
do shell script ( "name of instruction" & theUrl & where_to_put_file
& path_to_desktop & folder_on_desktop & fileName )
is the order of the parts between the & &'s purely logical ?
first instruction
then the url that the instruction shall get
then where to put what is 'gotten'
then the path
then the folder and
last the file
what if logic is not that simple :-)))
