In a first step, I'd tried to handle file copying correctly. I looked into the corresponding taskdefs, but found that there's a convenience routine in class Project, which seems to be used for this purpose. I don't like to modify Project, because it would add dependency on Mac-specific system classes. Rather it should be possible to override platform-specific behavior savely. Any plans or ideas for this? Christian
