Re: Script/Command to extract XYZ.ra URL from XYZ.ram files

I need to find/create a script that can, when fed a typical URL to a
something.ram file, the sort you find all over the BBC's "Listen
again" pages, will extract the URL within it, the real something.ra
file address, and output that so I can then feed it to mplayer for
streaming or grabbing/converting to .wav format.

I'm planning on using this as an external application in Firefox, to
replace Realplayer. (To avoid install it actually.)

Hints, tips, and URLs to existing projects welcome. :)

It is probably trivial for a knowledgeable scripter, but I think you're
likely to get better results if you posted an example of what link you
wanted as input and what you wanted out. From your description, I have
no idea where to find the right kind of input file.
