How to use a folders name in an apple script?

[nebaon]

I would like Hazel to download images that have corresponding names to the names of the folders in the monitored folder.
I have a script that should do the job (see below).

The problem is how to alter theFile so it will just contain the folder name without any path or included it.

Code: Select all

set theURL to theFile
do shell script "cd ~/Desktop/Hazel\\ test\\ folder/images; curl -O 'http://somedomain.com/" & theURL & ".jpg'"

I hope somebody can help?

Best,
David

Since this is a more general AppleScript question, you are probably better off doing a google search on it as there are various resources on the net.
