easier install on mac?

Is there a .dmg to download anywhere?

I dont have any experience creatng a .dmg - I barely know how to use one.

Using a script like create-dmg seems like a good idea.

However, I could use some help in how to create a suitable source-folder. It seems plausible to create a temporary folder and then install into it:

mkdir $(DMG_SOURCE_DIR)
make install prefix=$(DMG_SOURCE_DIR)
... create symlinks? what else?
create-dmg DomTerm-$(DOMTERM_VERSION).dmg $(DMG_SOURCE_DIR)

Is this the right approach? What are the missing steps?

I also have no experience in creating .dmg but I can help test at least

First attemp at a .dmg: here

There are some known problems (including a bad icon) and it may not work for you.

I updated this dmg. Most significantly, the default is now the wry front-end. This has the advantage that (hopefully) it doesn't have any extra dependencies; the downside it doesn't use the mac menubar (yet).
