Subject says it all

I'm specifically interested PackageMaker. Has it's functionallity improved?

And if not, can someone tell me how the hell i have to include scripts with those packages? I tried several times following the contents of other packages, but not even the simplest script works.

I never used package builder but I have noticed some differences. The Project Builder app now has a bookmarks tab. Most of the differences I saw were in Interface Builder. It is now set up to use Movie Views and some of the more odd buttons that OS X can allow. I haven't tried it yet but I assume that the Read File command should work now. The interfaces also seem a bit more colourful.

One thing is VERY important: when you move your projects over, ensure that you put them in exactly the same spot as when you ran the PB. I completely reformatted and then started using more sub-folders in my home directory to enhance the organization. This rendered my source un-compileable until I unchecked some header search preference button in the target settings (I now had my source in a slightly different location that when I first built the project so it couldn't find any of my other files in the project).

There's now some proper documentation for the package builder app, and the format for packages has changed since the PB, I think.
