I don't have a problem, per se, I just have to do some thinking on a couple of
things.
1. How to uninstall previous versions, and this version since they are
installed in different places, using different strategies.
2. Do we need an OS X install, since everything is pretty much installed in the
correct place.
This would require users install the Mac OS X Developer Tools, which are free,
downloadable, and an optional install on the OS release DVD. To me it's not a
big deal. Others may not agree. I would think that people installing ooRexx
would already have the Developer Tools installed.
3. If it is decided that a install package is desired, then I'll have to
rewrite the scripts that create it.
4. Current install doesn't seem to handle the org.rexxla.oorexx.rxapid plist
for the rxapi

Mac OS X isn't unix-like it is Certified UNIX 03 <Brand Certificate>
