Or you could use any of a number of installers such as InstallAnyWhere that creates installs for a variety of platforms. If I read your comments right, you are complaining because you can get away with forcing the user to make you app work on most platforms, but not on the Mac. (The difference between truly installing an app, and dumping it on the user's drive.) As a user of both Macs and NT, let me ask why are you distributing any application on any platform that isn't double-clickable to open?

I don't know about typical user use, but to distribute a Java application on the Mac, I have to use a tool from the Mac Java package to create a Mac application by feeding it the class, class path, and other parameters. (For CD distribution, I then need to write an AppleScript that installs the software, since an application won't be recognized on an ISO 9660 CD, since there's no resource fork...) Playing nice with others is not something the Mac system is good at. -Chris XSL-List info and archive: http://www.mulberrytech.com/xsl/xsl-list
