Description
Bash script using zenity to burn a downloaded iso to a mounted usb pen drive. It only requires that you have the iso, a mounted usb drive and zenity installed. It also includes several sanity checks to allow the user to cancel/make sure that it is doing what they want. Finally, it cleans up after itself to make sure no cruft is left on the system.

The script itself includes very extensive documentation.  Part of the idea behind this script is to show others how easy it is to script with bash and zenity and how flexible it is.  Included is a document of code snippets called code blocks that are re-usable pieces of code from the project.  The idea here being that they can be taken and applied to other projects.
