And it works like a dream! One enhancement - remove the zip files when completed?

graham, the problem is that's not the right site look for the link with "printables.html" in it

edit: graham, not fmotta

also, make sure after creating the shell script, you run chmod 755 on it so that it becomes executable.

e.g. my script was named "latest.sh" in a folder named "Atlas3D" on my Desktop , so I ran chmod 755 ~/Desktop/Atlas3D/latest.sh

then

cd ~/Desktop/Atlas3D/

then

./latest.sh

OK - well, I did not sudo this (however, it should work that way too). I ran it on OSX as well. I just ran a successful test on Ubuntu. But, I tried to make it use common point tools that is on most POSIX systems.

I am guessing that the moderators change caused it to fail as I think he was protecting the files by removing the URL and adding a bogus one. You should have the correct value for the 'url' variable available at the Kickstarter website/update. Find that and change the script to have that URL. I think I should not offer it again as the moderator redacted it.

Another thought is that bash can be sensitive to line ending. if you used an odd editor (I only use vi) then maybe it has some DOS guck at the end of lines and needs 'dos2unix' filtering.

I did a quick edit since the files have not been released to the public.
I think most will know what to put in for the URL.

I grew tired of manually doing what should be done automatically if we had the STL files in a version control system. This hacked script has worked for me and is likely not great - but I do not have to manually click each file and mentally keep track of which ones I downloaded.

#!/bin/bash
rm -f printables.html
url="http://files not releasedyet"

wget $url
files=`grep zip printables.html | awk 'BEGIN{FS="\"";}{print $6}' | grep -v href`
for f in $files; do
echo "Downloading File $f"
wget $f
done

NOTE: I added a like to remove any pre-existing printables.html in hopes to prevent use of an old file.
