Better DMG Tool

[quasado]

Hello All,

Maybe we could add this to readme. After struggling with all those weird bash scripts for creating dmg files which never worked out really good I've finally found a native NodeJS module which works like a charm: https://github.com/LinusU/node-appdmg

Maybe it helps someone :)

Wow, really cool tool.

😋 nice... but:

Currently the only supported os is Mac OS X.

Track the status of this here: LinusU/node-appdmg#14

Aww, perfect tool until then. If we're including just a link/short explanation about it, we could just state that caveat.

Hi, I'm the creator of node-appdmg. Most of the stuff needed for cross-platform is in place. The biggest obstacle now is to create the actual dmg image. If I understand the first comment correctly, you already have some bash scripts that can achieve this.

I didn't find the scripts thought (are they in this repo? no?) and I haven't got to much time at the moment, but it might be an easy solution and I would be glad to assist as much as possible.

@LinusU
As far as I know, grunt-node-webkit-builder is not yet using any dmg tool.
There is an opened issue about integrating dmg packaging to it (#1).
The module we initially intend to use https://github.com/andreyvit/yoursway-create-dmg is also Mac OS only.
