Thanks, but I only got more confused. I am not an XCode developer,
just a lowly Filemaker Developer.
Using Terminal I found that using this command:
ln -s /Applications/Compass_4.0.13/Compass.app ~/Desktop/Start_Compass
does exactly what I want.
Problem is, I don't know how to make that happen as a script called
by the installer.
Any thoughts?
. It's not an alias but a symbolic link. Symbolic links are cheap
aliases.
. If you want to go this way, you would need to add a postflight
script that would look like this:
#!/bin/sh
/bin/ln -s $3/Applications/Compass_4.0.13/Compass.app $USER/Desktop/
Start_Compass
exit 0
