It requires wget (which Mac OSX doesn’t ship with), so it would
have to be distributed in a DMG for Mac users.

On the other hand, Mac OS X does come with
curl, so maybe it could be
adapted to use that.

There are many instructions how to install wget and even some installers.
curl can’t beat ‘wget -m’ afaik.

I didn’t have any problem compiling and installing wget (although I did have to
change the default install path by hand from /usr/local to /opt/local so that it
would be in my pre-existing path). However, I suspect that most Mac users would
be averse to doing that. Having said that, here is Peter’s sh script (all 844
bytes of it):
http://www.halibut.com/~tcobbs/ldraw/private/bsbackup.sh
To use the above script, run it with the URL of the gallery you want backed up
as the only argument on the command line. I think it will only work if it’s in
the current directory when you run it. Also, it seems to only back up images
(not sure why that is). Make sure to put quotes around the URL on the command
line, since brickshelf URLs usually include a question mark, which the shell
will try to interpret.
Example:
./bsbackup.sh "http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?f=169512"
As mentioned, you must have wget installed on your system (which is there by
default on most Linux distros). This script doesn’t use the -m option, and
could be (fairly easily) modified to work with curl. I haven’t done that,
though, and don’t plan to.
