Have you looked into:
http://curl.haxx.se/docs/manpage.html
--- . . -o/--output <file> Write output to <file> instead of stdout. If you are using {} or [] to fetch multiple documents, you can use '#' followed by a number in the <file> specifier. That variable will be replaced with the current string for the URL being fetched. Like in: curl http://{one,two}.site.com -o "file_#1.txt" or use several variables like: curl http://{site,host}.host[1-5].com -o "#1_#2" You may use this option as many times as you have number of URLs. See also the --create-dirs option to create the local directories dynamically. . . --- For your request: curl -o "C:\curl\mad\filename_#1.ext" \ "http://memory.loc.gov/cgi-bin/query/D$mjmtext:[1-5]:./temp/~ammem_GQ2P::" what I don't know is if you need on windows '\\' or the is '\' enought.
