I just wanted to let everyone know that Ben is working on updating the script he uses to pull in the NASA FDN files. You know it goes, I expect.. A site reworks it's sites, links ip addresses or whatever,Sometime the nasa-apod site is a bit very 'different'. I've fixed the problem some months ago, since they announce some videos as well.
etc. which turns your previous methodology out the door <g> Just a
heads up that he's working on it :)
Take care,Bye/2 Torsten

Get JDeBP's 32-bit command line utilities package for OS/2. It has a real "date" command that doesn't prompt you; it just shows the date.
That's how Ubuntu's date command works... the command with no flags
just displays the date:

OS/2's shell has some definite quirks. That package I mentioned fixes many of
those quirks and adds some serious functionality.
I love the date command in bash. I use it a lot in BBS-related scripts.
