G’day all
I’m having ongoing problems getting a downloaded disk image to auto open after
the help I got yesterday.
I’ve written this script to set the procedure in stone, but it fails to save
the last file, which I PRESUME is in zipped format.
Anybody care to pick holes in the script, please??
Regards
Santa
set myFile to choose file of type {"dmg"} with prompt "Please select a disk
image to set the 'auto open' on :" #of type {".dmg"}
set myPath to quoted form of POSIX path of myFile
tell application "Finder" to set myname to name of myFile as text
set shellScript to "hdiutil attach -verify -autofsck -mount required " & myPath
do shell script shellScript
--> "hdiutil attach -noverify -noautofsck -mount required
'/Users/OzSanta/Documents/My XCode Projects/AA Sierra Public/Web Site stuff/Art
Archiver.dmg'"
set myFolder to choose folder with prompt "If desired, please select a new
folder in which to save a compressed version of the disk image, or Cancel :"
set folderPath to quoted form of POSIX path of ((myFolder as text) & myname &
".zip")
set shellScript2 to "hdiutil convert " & myPath & " UDZO -o " & folderPath #do
shell script shellScript2
-->hdiutil convert '/Users/OzSanta/Documents/My XCode Projects/AA Sierra
Public/Web Site stuff/Art Archiver.dmg' UDZO -o '/Users/OzSanta/Desktop/Art
Archiver.dmg.zip'"
shellScript & return & shellScript2
