Creating an script to automate on mac

First of all, i'm sorry if this topic isn't in the right place, I have a Mac and I've read that is unix based, that's why I'm writing here.

I'm trying to "create" a script with which i will be able to download any Tv Show automatically and then rename it.

I'm using for that goal the following programs:
  • Tv Shows 2, which allows you to automatically add to your torrent app torrents of the new episodes of the tv shows you are subscribed.
  • Filebot. A renamer which uses thetvdb to get the name of the episodes.
  • Transmission. Torrent client

I've been searching and I found that if make transmission to execute a script after downloading each torrent, I will be able to do what I like. And seaching again, I found that the script that will tell filebot to do that is something like this:

filebot -rename "$TR_TORRENT_DIR/$TR_TORRENT_NAME" --db thetvdb -non-strict

My question, so, is the following: How do I create a script that can do that?

Thank you very much and sorry again if it is misplaced.

If you want to download TV shows, take it up with the broadcasters or content providers. We're not here to help you steal stuff.
