The win isn't big enough *right now* to justify spending a ton of time on it, but I'll definitely take a look at iHook when the time comes. Thanks very much. -Adam On Tue, Jan 6, 2009 at 10:53 AM, Perbix, Michael <PERBIX@lmsd.org> wrote:
If you include iHook with your package, you can push a script through it and use iHook to display your gui messages with progress bar etc. That is how I do my first loginhook after imaging to let the user know what is going on. Ihook is not big, and free to use.

Does anyone know if there's a way to set the status message from a postflight script? My script takes a little while for various reasons, so I'd like to assure the user things are still humming along.
Sorry, we don't have support for that in Installer.app.
If you really want, you could create a GUI application to show progress. Yes, that's a lot of work. _______________________________________________ Do not post admin requests to the list.
