List Current MacUpdate Items

Hey Folks,

I was playing around and wrote this as an exercise.

List the current Items on MacUpdate:

set mu to do shell script "curl -L --user-agent 'Opera/9.70 (Linux ppc64 ; U; en) Presto/2.2.1' http://www.macupdate.com \\
| awk -F'id=\"app-[0-9]+[^>]+>' '/a href="" { print $2 }' \\
| awk -F'<' '{ print $1 }'"

I'm not sure if I'll do anything practical with it, but I might write to a file and do a diff during a given day to see what if anything is different since the last check.

Has anyone done anything interesting with this sort of thing?

Thanks.

Best Regards,
Chris
