Well, I don't know about 'nifty' ... any downloading tool needs to name the
file, right?

I still, then, do not understand what you want to accomplish?

Do you wish to change a file name? Is that all? Replace a file with
another? What?

-- to rename a file in the Finder
set x to choose file -- for testing
tell application "Finder" to set the (name of x) to "new name"


Or are you trying to _append contents_ of one file to another?
