Woohoo! Got Youtube to work!

<start>
#! /bin/sh

url="$1"

finalurl="$(wget -q -O - "$url" | grep fullscreenUrl | cut -f 2 -d "'" | cut
-f 2- -d '?' | tr '&' '\n' | grep -e ^video_id= -e ^t= | tr '\n' '&' | sed
's@^\(.*\)&$@http://youtube.com/get_video.php?\1@')"

if [ z"$finalurl" = z ] ; then
     echo No movie here.
else
     filename="${0##*/}-${url##*=}.flv"
     wget -O "$filename" "$finalurl" && exit
fi

echo "Sorry, don't know how to get this."
<end>

Note that "finalurl=" is all one line.
