How can I install an .app from the command line?
I know that some .apps (like Firefox and Chrome) are just directories that can be dragged or copied to /Applications But others aren't. For example, Flash Player.
I'm looking for either a command, like "installer -pkg /path/to/installer.pkg -target /" that works with .apps, or a way to dig out the logic the .app uses when it's double-clicked so I can recreate the installation process myself.
