Does anyone have any info on some real documentation on versions 2

copy and paste into the field - but the documentation doesn't tell
you what type of file it needs to be to be included (tried both
Word and Text and neither can be selected). I'm new to
PackageMaker and need some detailed documentation to work with!
Take an explore through the built-in, on-line help. For example, in
"Specifying the Interface," it says:
Read me content is shown to the user after the welcome content. Can
also be .rtf, .rtfd, .html, or .txt. The readme will be made
scrollable if necessary, so it can be as long as required.
I don't see ".doc" there, so no surprise that the Word file didn't
work, but you can have Word "Save As..." RTF, and that ought to
work. Or use TextEdit, whose native format is RTF. If you had
trouble selecting a "Text" file, perhaps its name did not end in ".txt"?
