No, there isn't, and I'd rather not have one. I prefer zip because it can be processed without proprietary tools. If I really needed to get at the contents of a package from a BSD box I could unzip it and then pax out the files. If it was in a DMG I'd be screwed. -bob _______________________________________________ Pythonmac-SIG maillist - Pythonmac-SIG@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/pythonmac-sig
