RB's console app's can return a value using the command
"quit([status])"
and therefore can be used to build PackageMaker scripts. But what about
scripts that need a user interface?
In my case, I need a dialog window which asks the user for his name and
license code. If the combination is valid, I want the installer to
install, if not, the installation should be cancelled.
I'm pretty damn certain that these scripts need to be executed by a
shell. So the short answer would be no.
I suggest thinking of something else.
