Re: offtopic cron/mozilla question
Hmm. I don't seem to ever have gotten the original post. Seems to be happening
to me quite a bit. I wonder why...

Since the nightlies are unstable, I like to save them as different file names,
based on the date, and then if today's is usable, I'll delete yesterday's
tarball. Here's part of my script:
packagename=mozilla-M18-`date +%Y%m%d`.tar.gz
wget http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla/nightly/latest/mozilla-i686-pc-linux-gnu.tar.gz --output-document=$packagefile
tar xzf $packagename
It will save the file as, for example, mozilla-M18-20001005.tar.gz for today's
date.
