Is it possible to make an installer that copies files from one place
to another? For example, I have a number of files on a DVD along with
an installer, and I want the installer to copy the files to the Mac
HD. The files are not in the package itself. Maybe this is possible
with some kind of script?
You could definitely do this with a script. Scripts are just regular
scripts--they can do anything you could do with a shell script on the
system normally. You can set up a script-only target, or if the action
is associated with a particular target you could have a pre- or post-
install script for that target.
You might also be able to do this with the installer itself, but I've
never tried this myself, and haven't looked into it...
