Prompt for User Input

[Jamie]

Brand new to the luggage and pkgs.  Apologies for my grand ignorance.

I'm creating a pkg that installs a config file alongside a LaunchDaemon.  This config file requires unique information (remote host, username, password) from the user. 

Can I prompt the user using a preinstall script and update the config file before copying it to its destination?  How would you do this? Should I use applescript to display a dialog?  Can the input data be passed to a temp ENV variable to be picked up by the makefile, or a postinstall script?

Thanks,

Jamie

Normally, you wouldn't use theLuggage for this. You'd use a tool like Packages, or custom-make an installer plugin, information for which can be found here: http://s.sudre.free.fr/Software/Packages/resources.html
