Hi,
I’m a newly registered user of Extra Suites. I’m trying to measure the progress of a burn (hdiutil burn) using the progress bar command of Extra Suites. Alas I am having no luck because this requires a bit more programming knowledge of applescript than I have right now. Could someone point me to an applescript that does something similiar or give me some snippets of code that I can work with. Thanks in advance 
The code to display and make grow the progress bar is very easy. You can see it in the examples folder.
But, most probably, it doesn’t help you so much. I have no experience with hdiutil, but most probably you fire the shell script, then wait some minutes till the burning is finished, so you can’t track the progress.
Perhaps you could redirect the output -progress- of the burning to an external text file, then read it at intervals and update the progress bar according to the data you read. (?) Or check periodically the size of the CD, then compare it against the size of the data to be burned, and make some percent calculations…
