I believe in Leopard or Snow Leopard they support ACL's as well. Now if we can
only get Apple to make their ACL's implicitly inherited as in Windows for the
clients as well as the server software, we will be saying something! But that's

OK, then you have to write a shell script.
Get the root password by asking for it on installation..
Then go out to shell and call a script which will switch user to root, give

should be pretty simple to do in any unix.

Dioes the Finder have the ability to get and set properties, ie permissions?
The usual thing to do in Linux, very similar base, would be to tell the user

On Windows, you make something executable by putting .exe at the end. Of
course, if it's not a real executable, nothing will happen, and if it is a real
executable, and you don't put .exe at the end, it won't execute. This actually
makes it a simple matter to send someone what looks like a jpg

Oh no, you can do anything in shell that you can do in Terminal. Done

I know nothing at all of Macs
I have Rev Studio (windows) and in the standalone builder there is a Mac
(OSX) tab and when I build my Windows Standalone, I also get a Mac folder.
Is this a Mac standlone of any type? If so, how is it used. What is OSX?

That's seems a ridiculously obtuse process. Not doubting it, but couldn't the

Hi Paul, Richard
Thanks for your help. I should be able to get it working from this, even if
I have to help the user myself!
Unfortunately, Apple's Unix core will require an extra step to deploy
there:
The folder you see is what Apple calls a bundle, and contains all the
parts and pieces the
I meant to be more silly than sarcastic. :)
It works fine the way I use it, from Mac to Windows. But it can't be denied
it's not so simple if you write on Windows and wish to deploy on Mac, and that
is sort of 1/2 of the common equation for x-platform deployment, isn't it?
