On Mac, .app is an application bundle, and a bundle is a directory acts
like a single file. Therefore you can treat .app as a single file like
.exe on PC.
PC/Mac hybrid CDs are normally created on Mac using Toast. You do not
have two sets of identical files (such as your XML files) on PC and Mac
sectors on CD because you can share them using aliases.
You can obviously do autorun on PC sector of the CD, but not for Mac
sector - but Mac users generally know how to use CD ROMs so no problem
there ;) You can at least make the Mac disk image with folder open.

All,
A few questions about creating a Projector for the Mac on a PC, which
I plan to burn to a CD.
1.My application reads data from several XML configuration files.
Those files are stored in a folder named "xml", so, in actionscript, I
tell Flash to look in the relative path "./xml/" for those files.
On the PC version of the CD, the .exe and xml subdirectory are in the
same place - the root level of the CD. This works great.
However, the Mac projector creates a whole set of folders and
subfolders that I don't understand. So, I don't know where to put the
xml subfolder.
Specifically, when I create a Mac Projector, I get this:
[program name].app
Contents
Resources
movie.swf
So, when I burn the Mac CD, should the xml subdirectory be on the same
level as [program name].app, or in the same subdirectory as movie.swf?
Or, someplace else?
2. Is it possible to burn a CD for the Mac on a PC?
3. If the answer to 2 is yes, is it possible to make the projector auto-run?
Many thanks in advance!
Cheers,
Matt
