I seen to recall that you can do that. Then the PKG could run the script as a preflight. On Dec 1, 2009, at 4:15 AM, Alexander von Below <below@mac.com> wrote:

No, by design -- and for good reason -- there is nothing like autoexec.bat on the Mac.

What exactly are you trying to do?

Is there any autoexec.bat on Mac?

Dmg is neutral, pkg can do that.

Hi, I'm distributing the software in the form of a DMG, with the usual /Applications alias and the app. Now my requirement is to run a small program, that will be put in the DMG along with the app and alias, this program will run for a fraction of a second and will then quit. Is it possible to automatically run this small app when the DMG mounts?

Wishes, Nick
