Well, basically for writing CDs on UNIX there is cdrecord, which works on just about any OS you can think of. See README.sgi in the source distribution as well. For DVDs, there is cdrecord-ProDVD which is a (non-GPL but free as in beer for noncommercial use) version of cdrecord that can also burn DVDs, and there is Andy's growisofs. I'm not sure if that works on IRIX though, but you can always try. cdrecord: http://www.fokus.gmd.de/research/cc/glone/employees/joerg.schilling/private/cdrecord.html growisofs: http://fy.chalmers.se/~appro/linux/DVD+RW/ HTH, Lourens -- GPG public key: http://home.student.utwente.nl/l.e.veen/lourens.key
