Hi all:

I'm wanting to move away from DMGs to ZIP delivery. As part of this move I'd like to have my app, SousChef, prompt the user on first run to move itself to /Applications (or ~/Applications as appropriate). In a short search I can't find any code examples hanging about to do something like this. Would anyone mind sharing ideas/code on how to do this?

Thanks,
->Ben

My advice is: Don't do that. Well written applications can run from any directory the user have read access to;
for example a subdirectory of /Applications.
I have for example subdirectories of /Application for thirdparty software development tools, and for webeditors
