shell script for spotlight
 

Hi

Can some one show me how to write a shell script that I can execute after
copy completes, to have spotlight index an external fire wire drive please?

cheers

There's no need to do this: spotlight automatically indexes new content on a drive.

ahh, forgot that

but how would i write the code to do that?

There is no need to write code to do that, since it just does it for you.
