Thanks all guys!

Mike Trent wrote a handy little script that makes building disk images automatically from the command line easy. I augmented it to add a handful of features

First, set up the project as follows:

- add a Packaging BuildStyle to the project, it simply sets INSTALL_PATH=/

- add a Packaging Target to the project as an aggregate target that includes all of the other targets that need to be built/installed on the disk. In the case of Xoptimize, I have Legacy targets that copy the ReadMe, the Credits file, and the Change Log.

To build a package, do the following from the command line (add -nosource to not include source):

Tools/build -archive dmg -name 'Xoptimize v1.0' -nocompress Xoptimize

This will create an uncompressed disk image in /tmp/Xoptimize.build/archives/. Mount it and make it look however you want-- move the icons around, set the background, do whatever you want.

Unmount it.
