Is it possible to build a multi-languages installer? #157

We're deploying our application in English and French languages. Is there a way to make this drag&drop installer multi-languages?

In fact changing the background image on-the-start can be sufficient.

the process could be:

detecting OS language
selecting the background_en or background_fr
installer is displayed in user's language

+1 this would be a great feature ;)

Unfortunately, I don't think that there is a way to do this. This program only produces DMG-files and has no way to run any code when the image is opened.

Unless there is a way to set different background images for different locales in the ".DS_Store" file format, there is no way for us to do this...

If anyone has any ideas on how to do this, I'd be happy to reopen.
