When I add the folder (which is on the Desktop), this test:
display dialog POSIX path of (((path to desktop) as string) & "PuzzlesToDo:" & myFileName)

shows the correct path, with slashes. However, when I put the folder into the shell command, like this:

do shell script ("curl " & this_URL & " -o " & POSIX path of (((path to desktop) as string) & "PuzzlesToDo:" & myFileName))
I get this error:
<curl error.jpg>
Can someone here tell me how to fix this? TIA.

Put the path construction in parentheses?

i.e.

do shell script ("curl " & this_URL & " -o " & (POSIX path of (((path to desktop) as string) & "PuzzlesToDo:" & myFileName)))
