Hi Dan, just to clarify things in my mind, assuming you don't have a
.pkg installer, I was told to copy the application to the applications
folder, then run the application to install it, and then close the
application, and then eject the .dmg image from the finder, but
assuming it doesn't need to ask questions, is the application
installed, by virtue of the fact that it is in the applications folder,
and if not, can you just remove the .dmg image from the finder, and
then, run the application to install it afterwards? I ask because, I
installed adium last week, and after copying the application to the
applications folder, I ran the application, but it must have closed
some how, and this, before I ejected the .dmg image from the finder, so
I ran it again, and from the dock, ran the setup assistant, and all was
well, just want the understanding of this to be clear in my mind.
Thanks in advance.

Hi Robin, what I usually do is eject the image with command e after
I've moved the application file into the applications folder. HTH.
