Hi all.

I've been using DevStudio for a few months now and have recently been asked to look at 'X' for a UNIX-based application.

The thing is I'm sure I've read somewhere that X provides a command-line/terminal installer 'free' when you create the GUI one. In other words we'd like an installer that, where possible, provides a GUI for the user. However where that isn't possible or practical (like where remote terminal access is the only connection method available) we'd like to provide a text-based installer for the user.

Am I completely barking mad or does 'X' do something like that? If it does can someone point me in the right direction - I've had a look and can't find anything (although I'm probably searching on the wrong keywords!!)

Thanks in advance,

Paul.
