CreateDiskImage

CreateDiskImage is an Applescript droplet that lets you easily create highly compressed disk images without the need to go through Apples Disk Utility application, by using „Drag & Drop“.

Simply drop any folder or file to this Applescript droplet, and it will create a compressed disk image which contains the dropped file or the contents of the dropped folder.

Compressed disk images are the main distribution scheme on the Mac OS X platform, as recommended by Apple, so it gets ever more convenient for Mac OS X users to handle such disk image files, instead of PKZip archives as created by Finder’s „Create Archive of...“ functionality.

Main Features:

- Easily creates compressed disk images from dropped files and folders

- Supports drag & drop of multiple files

- Uses highest compression rate, as opposed to Apple’s Disk Utility which uses medium compression rate

- When finished, a dialogue tells whether the creation process was successful
