Option 3: Do both like done on windows: give an installer and a zip (in our case a dmg) and the user decides.

Please all give me feedback to options (1), (2) and (3), and if you have more/better options, share them as well.

I don't use OS X, but think #3 is best and most flexible. The download page can recommend the Installer version for beginners, the ZIPped DMG for advanced users, while making very clear that the features are identical in both.

Although #2 has its good points, too, for folk who like to test things and would presumably know how to associate PTO files in the OSX file system with their desired Hugin version.

If you download and compile Rosegarden (Linux music sequencer) source code, if you leave off the final "make install" line, you have a Rosegarden folder in your home folder. You can easily run Rosegarden from that, without disturbing any installed version of Rosegarden. I don't believe compiling Rosegarden requires admin priviledges, only doing a "make install" does.

Maybe original poster could ask the school to have Hugin added to their standard lab image?
