Hi Folks,

(Not super saavy about Mac OS X here so bear with me please...)

On the subject of DMG's... I inherited a software product that
currently ships using some moldy-oldy version of the Wise installer. I
think basically all it does is put the application _folder_ into the
Applications folder. In the application folder I am referring to is
the application bundle, some PDFs (doc) and a Plugins folder with one
plugin bundle in it. I think the application expects the plugins to be
in this specific place i.e., the Plugins folder in the applications
folder.

I'd prefer to ship this as a DMG... But if I understand DMG-based
delivery correctly, the idea is that Mac users are used to this and
"know" to copy the application bundle to the Applications folder. But
I need the user to copy the application folder (not just the bundle)
into the Applications folder. otherwise the plugin won't be found and
life as we know it will cease ;)

Is DMG just a non-starter for this or is there a way with a DMG format
to someone clue in the user that the folder needs to be copied, not
just the application bundle.

Thanks in advance...

Chris
