You want to create a blank CD? Run out of coasters for your drinks?
:-)
I'm assuming you want to fill that CD with stuff, let's assume that
stuff is in a folder on the Desktop named "stuff".
The easiest way that I know how to do this is to use the shell.
hdiutil is a good shell tool for burning CDs. Here's how you would use
it:
----
set theStuff to (path to desktop folder as string) & "Stuff:"
set posixStuff to quoted form of POSIX path of theStuff
try
do shell script "hdiutil makehybrid -o /tmp/stuff.iso " & posixStuff
& " -default-volume-name 'Stuff'"
do shell script "hdiutil burn /tmp/stuff.iso"
do shell script "rm -rf /tmp/stuff.iso"
end try
