Scott,

I assume you have the Developers Tools installed on your mac. There's an application called PackageMaker that is bundled with it. It allows you to build .pkg files with all the options you want including scripts.

a quote:

"You can bundle executable files within your package and Installer.app will run these executables during the install. Generally these files will be shell scripts."

Just launch it and look into the help file, everything is there!!!

Cheers
andre

Scott,

the installer must be a .pkg? can't you build a stack that is an installer and will execute the scripts and everything? it might be easier...

This is an off-topic request for anyone who has experience building
installers on the Mac platform that rely on scripts. I received a request from a client to build installers that need to do some condition checking and be editable on the client's end, via text-editing a script or similar. DMG drag-install is not an option due to file-checking needs, and packages
that charge per seat/year usage fees are not acceptable.

I came across a package called MacInstallerBuilder which looks promising, but am wondering if any folks around here have other experience and/or
suggestions.  Please contact off-list.

Thanks & Regards,
