I played with Bashpodder a bit and made some changes to suit my needs. However, I'd like to state that I really appreciate the simple elegance of your version - it was really easy understand exactly what it was doing and why, for the most part, making these changes really easy to do.

This script adds the following:

* The ability to add a podcast by specifying it on the command line
* Comments on the bp.conf file
* Saving files by podcast instead of by date
* Using individual podcast log files for tracking completed downloads
* When adding a podcast on the command line, the title of the podcast is pulled from the feed and placed in a comment in bp.conf
* Also when adding a podcast, all of the enclosures are added to the .log file so that they're ignored by default.
    (Currently I have the script run nano to edit the podcast-specific log file after it's created so that they can be removed on the spot)


By doing these enhancements, I've broken the simplicity and possibly transportability of the script, so I'm not recommending that all of these enhancements be Incorporated, but feel free to do with them what you will!

Thanks for the great script,

- Doug
