What installer software for macintosh would you recommend? It has to support leopard & snow leopard. Be easily scriptable and not expensive.

Thank you,

Best answer is: don't.

The "Mac Way" is to provide just a .app that the user can drag into /Applications or ~/Applications. The .app is really a directory that contains all the program's assets: code, properties, imagery, etc.

The only time you need to build an installer package is when you're modifying the system. In the Mac world, that's seldom the right answer.
