Grabs and sends you the most recent ep of a podcast.
<?php
/*
* Look for the first podcast episode given an rss feed, then download it.
*
*
* This is pretty unsafe, as it'll grab any url handed to it.
*
* You can set feed by commenting the first line where it's defined and setting your
* own URL, but that still means that it'll download any file the supplied feed hands
* to it.
*
* There are 3 ways to use file:
* 1) Post this on your website, and set FEED below. It'll grab the most recent
* version of the podcast feed you set it to *only.* This is the "safer" way
* to do it.
* 2) If FEED is not set below, it'll parse any feed handed to it with the "feed"
* variable. Example: "http://my.site/curep.php?feed=http://my.podcast.feed/feed"
* 3) On the command line: curep.php -f http://my.podcast.feed -o episode.mp3
* This will grab the most recent ep on the feed and save it to episode.mp3.
* This is by far the safest method.
