there is something that was done for cocoa apps that works great
called sparkle <http://www.andymatuschak.org/pages/sparkle> that I
have used it is great. I am sure that something similar could be
done here.

My need is merely to provide apps for our Mac-Only internal network
at our company. When I write in RealBasic, I have a routine that
checks with our database server to see if there is a newer version
than what is currently loaded on the users machine and they call
our department to get the newer version loaded for them.
The problem is that with dozens of users, this gets old fast.
I was wondering if anyone knew of a way of auto-updating an
application. I would think that somehow the new version would have
to be downloaded to a temp directory, the current version moves
itself to the trash (is that even possible?), and then quits and
relaunches the new version after copying it to the applications
folder on OS X
Sounds kludgy, and somewhat impossible, but I figured it couldn't
hurt to ask._______________________________________________
