Thanks for any insights offered! I have a prefPane that I need to install from a shell script (I know that the user can double-click on the prefPane file itself and the file will handle its own installation, but that is not a viable option in this scenario....) I have tried using ditto to allow me to copy the prefPane into /Library/PreferencePanes, but that only copies the CONTENTS of the prefPane into the target directory. I have been trying to get ditto to work in three lines (create a zip file, copy the zip file and then unzip the zip file to the target directory) but so far that has not worked either. I am hoping that someone on this list has had this conundrum and found a viable solution that they are willing to share. If not, could someone suggest a better list for this question? Thanks for any and all assistance. Regards, Steve O'Sullivan _______________________________________________ Do not post admin requests to the list. They will be ignored.
