Automatically download the latest NetBeans releases

Posted on November 10, 2007
Here's what I use to grab the latest daily builds. You'll want to tweak it for directory names etc. 
bld=`wget -q -O - 'http://deadlock.netbeans.org/hudson/job/ruby/lastSuccessfulBuild/buildNumber'`
wget -P /home/james/Desktop "http://deadlock.netbeans.org/hudson/job/ruby/lastSuccessfulBuild/artifact/ruby/rubyide/dist/netbeans-rubyide-hudson-$bld.zip"
cd /home/james/Desktop
rm -rf nbrubyide
unzip "netbeans-rubyide-hudson-$bld.zip"
newdir=nb$bld
mkdir $newdir
mv nbrubyide/* $newdir
