"gains would be negligible" <- Relative! I just couldn't look at the two greps and say Okiee. So what if I played with sed and sed docs for a half-hour to get that line just right? I dusted off my sed skills/knowledge in the process, and I may use them again sometime before I die. I lose so much productivity in these sort of witch hunts. Good thing I work for the government...

I thought about busting out sed, really I did. I'm just quite a bit slower with sed. And the gains would be negligible, since the vast majority of the execution time is in the wget chunk, not the parsing. So my time won, since it took me < 10 seconds to write the grep chain :)

perhaps you could replace the two invocations of grep with one sed script:

sed -n 's/.*\.tumblr\.com\/post\/\(([0-9]+)\).*/\1/gp' > tumblr_ids.txt

looks ugly but might be more efficient...

However, I much approve of the one line goodness.

I'm not sure what that's about, but I tweaked things a bit more... It should be happier now.

I might have fixed it. Wanna check?

your code escapes the box... leaking to the right a little.
