Script not exiting


  • Subject: Script not exiting
  • From: David Weller <email@hidden>

I have written a couple of scripts to mount CD's and run them because I wasn't happy with the way that MCX handles auto mounting volumes.
When I mount a CD and run an application designed for OS X then my script runs and exits as per normal.
Where I run into trouble is when the application I want to run is a Classic application. The scripts runs OK but it doesn't exit, it stays open in the background forever, until the user quits the application.
When the application quits the script then generates an error.
My question to the list is. How do I make the script exit automatically when I am mounting a CD then running a classic application?


Thanks
