Hey Yvan,

I edited it a bit with my "standard" tools

Nice to see ASObjC_Runner get some play.

I'm quite sure that there is a neater way to achieve the same goal with some magic wand ;-)

do shell script "

	bURL=\"http://apod.nasa.gov/apod/\";

	uPTH=`curl -s \"$bURL\" | awk -F\\\" '/href="" { print $2 }'`;

	uNM=`awk -F/ '{ print $NF }' <<< $uPTH`;

	curl -s \"$bURL$uPTH\" -o ~/\"Pictures/APOD_Images/`date '+%Y%m%d » '`$uNM\";

"

A minor miracle.  :)

Best Regards,

Chris
