Lots of good points in this thread. Do dks still do shadow frost dmg 2017. I've re-thought how this should work.

My problem is that my downloads folder gets cluttered with dmg files. I can't remember which ones I've already installed. Some of them I have opened and installed, but I've forgotten to move them out of my downloads folder. Some of them I downloaded but haven't opened yet.

My new version of the script moves the dmg file when it is mounted. To use it, save this script to '/Library/Scripts/Folder Action Scripts/' and attach this folder action script to the /Volumes directory. Ideally, my script would trigger when you eject the disk image, but by then it's too late; the disk image is gone, and there's nothing left for AppleScript to process. I figure triggering on mount was pretty good, since I really wanted to know what dmg files I had opened or not.

Most of you didn't want to delete the dmg file. That's a good idea. My script now moves it to a dmg_archive folder. Feel free to change this to suit your needs.
