Flat package editor can do the trick. It is part of package maker. Launch package maker and it is an option in one of the menus. Alternatively you can right click on packagemaker.app and look inside and did flat package editor in there as an app. _______________________________________________ Do not post admin requests to the list.

Now I would like to set the initial keyboard focus to the first text field in the pane. It seems that the outlet initialKeyView is the key, but it cannot be used because the outlet is defined in @private section of the InstallerPane class. /*! @method initialKeyView @discussion Returns the view that should have the keyboard focus when the pane is entered. This method returns the initialKeyView outlet. This outlet should be connected in the nib containing the pane. A subclass can override this method to return a dynamically defined initialKeyView. */ This email sent to site_archiver(a)lists.apple.com
