Thanks! Yes, that worked. I had to use rev twice as you suggested. This
single line script seems to do what I want:
for file in *.mp3; do basename $file _default.mp3 | rev | cut -d_ -f1 | rev;
done
I can then design a further wrapper script to take the PID, download the web
page and name it the same as the original filename with an html extension.
This is perfect! I hadn't heard of rev before. I not only learned
something new, but I now have a solution for the next time I run into a
situation like this.

Hi,
I usually use rev twice, e.g.
echo blablabla_bla_p123_default.mp3|rev|cut -f2 -d'_'|rev
HTH, Willem
