There's no reason that perl couldn't call wget though.

Yeah, the prepare script is nice and does the job with wget (really, any webpuller would do) - but why bash it? (not to bash bash - 8-) ) Really though, since the rest of unattended is running perl, is there a way to let todo.pl pickup and run prepare with a "check for update, then get it" sort of flag. So when I run unattended for the first time, it would automatically run prepare and dl anything needed. (ideally, the process would check each time to keep our patches up-to-date.)
I should do some checking around, theres got to be a nice bash to perl translator out there (cause im too lazy to do it meself)
um... incase yall have thought of, or done this already - just consider me slow! thx
