Re: [MLUG] Backing up MP3s on CD-R's without tar

[Ian Monroe <EMAIL:PROTECTED>]

Well, in the interest of those Google searchers I'll respond to my own 
post. I ended up writing a shell script to do it. I did it in PHP, since 
its actually pretty good at file stuff and its what I know. And I was 
able to drop in a function from the user comments on the documentation 
on php.net that puts the file system into a data structure, which is 
about half the work.

You can find IsoMaker at http://www.monroe.nu/projects.php (or 
http://mlug.missouri.edu/~eean/projects.php if you prefer (-:). As you 
can tell by the title, it doesn't do anything with CD burning, I figured 
it wasn't worth the hassle. Theres a few small bug fixs I did without 
checking them (since I already created my ISOs), but it should work out. 
A couple of feature I might write is a way to say "create an ISO with 
files from this date and onward," and a directory/file exclusion list
