Hello, all ...

How do I detect the presence / insertion of a DVD, much like the autorun mechanism on Linux? I want to automatically run certain operations when the system detects that a DVD with certain files has been inserted. Since this is a quick weekend project for a friend, i'd like to be able to do it in Perl or bash if possible (the "certain operations" I speak of are basically decompress the files and copy them to a certain place). The DVD will likely be created on a Linux or Windows box.

Any help would be appreciated!

Regards,

John
