Faster, better disk image mounting via a script
Authored by: houchin on Mar 12, '03 01:33:03AM

Mount.app is really just yet another GUI to /usr/bin/hdid. The reasons I wrote it were:

- I wanted something that would stay open (I'm too impatient to wait for an app to start every time I want to mount an image
- I wanted something that handled license agreements in such a way that I was presented the agreement
- I wanted to learn Cocoa

(In some ways I regret adding the capability to automatically accept license agreements. Despite the warnings, I fear that someday someone is going to get in trouble because there were terms in the agreement that they don't like, but agreed to anyway without seeing them)

(1.0.1 is due out any day that fixes the couple bugs that have been mentioned)
