Greetings HyperFolks:

At the risk of legendary naivete, is there a way to detect disk-inserted
events from within HyperCard? As part of Yet-Another-Disk-Label-Stack
I've created a pair of XFCNs: one (GetVol) gets a list of mounted
volumes and another (GetDir) produces a list of the files on a given
volume. My openStack handler calls GetVol, but if the user inserts a
disk, the list must be updated. Right now I've got a button for this,
but I'd like to automate the process.

Sorry if this is FAQ. Thanks, John
