Tools, installers, and login items

Hi,

I have a foundation tool which is intended to be running all the time. I would like to make an installer for it which will make it a login item or something, so it will always be open. I have two problems though... firstly, it doesn't seem like a tool works as a login item, since it doesn't run when doubleclicked. Secondly, I don't know how to get an installer to make something a login item... looking at the Package Maker help I guess it would be a post-install script but I don't know what should be in that. Am I borking up the wrong tree here? Can/should it be a login item? It's only meant to run for the user who installs it.
