## /usr/local/bin/burn-dir ##

# Burn-dir. Simple command to burn a
# directory onto a CD-R.  Based off of
# mkisofs man page.  Assumes that
# /etc/cdrecord.conf is correct.

  echo -e "Useage:"
  echo -e "  $0 directory \"Volume Name \""
  exit 1

CDROM=/dev/cdrom1

cdblocks=`mkisofs -print-size -quiet -V \
  "$2" -r -J -f $1`

echo "mkisofs -quiet -V \"$2\" -r -J -f $1 | \
  cdrecord -v -pad  tsize=${cdblocks}s -"
mkisofs -quiet -V "$2" -r -J -f $1 | \
  cdrecord -v -pad tsize=${cdblocks}s -

eject $CDROM
