I am starting on a project to learn a little bit about Applescript for a little project of mine. What I want to do it have a script that inventories my HD, then I install some software, then re-inventory. I should then be able to compare the two and create a list of differences including paths and such.
That is part one.
Part two is to have Diskcopy create a blank read/write image file, and copy all the changed files into it in the proper directory structure for the purpose of re-installing at a later time, I then want to image to be a compressed read-only. I have not yet looked at the dictionary for Disk Copy.
This can be on OSX or OS 9.2.2- Also can this be done stock, or will I need some scripting additions?
There is a program out there that does this, but as great as it is, I am having mixed success with it.
Is this even possible with Applescript, or is it too much for me to attempt? I am just putting the feelers out so you can communicate with my off-list if you like.
Thanks.
-Mike
