I've written a couple scripts that use CD's only. You can find example scripts on the Quicktime Applescript page:

In the old days, Apple referred to any volume > 5 meg as a hard disk. I

if the volume size is > 5 meg and the name of the item dragged on is the
same as the root name of that item.

I guess you could also check to see if it is locked. Then you would be
pretty durn close to a cd.

I need to create a droplet that will only accept a CD. Does anyone know how
to do this. I tried the following to no avail...

Any help would be great.

Thanks,
Graham



on open these_items


repeat with i from 1 to the count of these_items
set error_index to 0
set this_item to item i of these_items
set item_info to the info for this_item
set item_name to the name of the item_info as string
set item_path to this_item as string

if (disk of the (info for this_item) is true) then
try
tell application "Extensis Portfolio 5.0.1"
activate
