is there one out there already? couldnt find one if there is... im looking for a script where you give xbmc a url and it connects and downloads the file to a specified directory.

http://xboxmediacenter.com/wiki/index.php?..._Python_Scripts <- a good start.

http://www.python.org <- download python

http://www.google.com <- search for stuff (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)

http://mmm-experts.com/ <- Pyscripter (a good editor, atleast I think so)

Mainly you should look into urllib and urllib2 for your needs. think there is even an example "download file" on xbmc wiki.

A most of all, have fun while doing it (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)
