You should make mkisofs more correct. It should refuse to make incompatible disc by default. Currently it says nothing when filenames aren't compatible and/or filenames are to long. (Or "-r" and/or "-J" switches that behaviour off. That are the only options i use) I grep for the "print" myself and put the "exit 1" behind it myself. But i would prefer to not do that with every release in the future. I'm OK with a commandline-option i can put into my image-creation script. (And i think my other would prefer such on option, or mkisofs to die when i skips files. I think most people didn't notice that behaviour because not so many use DVD-R currently. Like the "You have 10 seconds left" in cdrecord that did "exit 0" in the past, when you pressed "Control-C". Nobody noticed that, but my script just wippes the image when cdrecord does an "exit 0", so i lost an image (I had the luck that "Midnight Commander" could restore that file. But that took 24 hours) Same with my image-creation script. It BELIEVES mkisofs. When mkisofs says "everything OK", then everything is OK and the source-files can be wipped. This behaviour destroys that "trust" situation.) Bis denn -- Real Programmers consider "what you see is what you get" to be just as bad a concept in Text Editors as it is in women.
