Hello all:

I am new to the world of Apple and I have developed a script ot mount my network smb shares, but I would like to add an alias (for the created mounts) to the dock - can anyone point me in the right direction? (Google has not been kind using various and assorted terms)



set hojo to choose folder with prompt "Please choose a volume to add to the dock..." default location (((path to startup disk as Unicode text) & "Volumes") as alias)
--set trolokite to (characters 1 thru -2 of (POSIX path of hojo)) as Unicode text
set
trolokite to (POSIX path of hojo) as Unicode text
--display dialog trolokite
do shell script
"defaults write com.apple.dock persistent-apps -array-add '<dict><key>tile-data</key><dict><key>file-data</key><dict><key>_CFURLString</key><string>" & trolokite & "</string><key>_CFURLStringType</key><integer>0</integer></dict></dict></dict>'"
do shell script
"sh -c \"killall Dock\""
