[racket-dev] Racket DMG improvements
I've been told that some DMG installers of OSX add a symlink to
/Applications so it's easy to drag the application in there. IIUC,
these things should be added:
* A symlink to "/Applications" so if I drag the above into it it will
get copied into the system's application folder
* Some OSX magic that makes sure that the Racket folder and the
symlink are in known positions, and the window gets opened at a
known size,
* Some more magic places an image in the background, something that
looks like:
[ ] To install Racket drag [ ]
[ Racket ] <---- the Racket folder into [ Apps ]
[ ] your Applications folder ----> [ symlink ]
If there's anyone who can write the shell code that starts with a
folder that has just the Racket directory, and gets to the above, I'll
add it to the installer generation script.
(I'm assuming that a script is needed, for resource forks or
whatever? Please bear in mind that I don't use OSX, which is why I
need a script rather than instruction on how to drag things and where
to click...)
