Has anybody bundled WinShortcutter from lobotomo.com? It's a freeware app/service that opens Windows links on Macs.

The reason I ask is that after it's installed, it seems that I need to go into keyboard preferences and enable the Open Shortcuts in Windows option. I'm wondering if there's a way to script that out so the end user can have a quick and easy install and it works.

    I found the plist file that it creates. So, using suggestions from another thread I put the plist and the vendor install pkg file into the /pvt/tmp folder. then did a post flight script to install the pkg and copy the plist, however, the copy of teh plist didn't seem to happen. can someone suggest where I went wrong?

    #!/bin/sh
installer -pkg /private/tmp/WinShortcutter.pkg -tgt /
cp -av /private/tmp/pbs.plist ~/Library/Preferences/
exit 0

    I don't see anything that actually states it's running the copy portion...
