Creating Dropbox like DMG package

Question

Does anyone suggest a freeware tool/script/manual_way of creating Dropbox like DMG -

Need to ask couple of questions --

• I want double clicking the Folder-Icon should copy the folder(which would contain installer and uninstaller .app files of my application) into the system's /Applications folder.

Solution -- This has been solved using Applescript and changing icon of that applescript file to the folder-icon(i.e double clicking that script will move our folder(which would be present in a hidden folder) to /Applications.Any suggestions for second and third part?

• Is it possible to show hyperlink of actual dropbox.com to actually open it's website?

• And how we can customize volume's/Drive icon?

Answer 1

You can find a way to do it by reading this: Packaging a Mac OS X Application Using a DMG » asmaloney.com

I believe you can also use the trick of naming a shellscript file something.command in order to make it double clickable, (but maybe it will open the terminal, -I haven't tried it).
