Dan,

FWIW, I and others have been talking about the distribution of  
standalones and password issues and timers, etc. If this were  
thoroughly explored in detail I would purchase this. Also any tricks  
in Building SAs with icons and Start Bar menu's and Dock menu's and  
CD distribution, password protection, etc.

My issue with CD distribution was that on the Windows side the  
external and alias for the app needed to be in a certain place in  
order for my paths to find it but the Mac side needed them to be  
somewhere else. I ended up having duplicate folders with the same  
(300 + images) media for distribution so as to not break the file  
paths. I know better now but I would have loved to have known before  
I started some of the pitfalls.

My next project is an external/ library release and I would love to  
know some of the pitfalls before finishing this.

Regards,

Tom
