Small bug found: If the package file is in a different directory than the x3 main directory it doesn't seem to install.
As for the uninstall...hmm, i don't think it is a good idea to copy it from within the installer, because you have to start X3, load and save the game to complete uninstallation in the game. It would need a two step uninstallation then. I can't think of a good solution for that right now.

Hmm, what would you think if the uninstallation procedures are not packaged with the script package but a different package that could be installed and uninstalled?
It would make additional handling unnecessary in the script installer and we don't need a separate directory for it.
Would be a simple but working solution i think.

I have another suggestion 
Autogenerate the package file name, consisting of package name, version number and date of creation. Could be a separate button if someone doesn't like the generated format.

You have by having 2 script packages, one holds the script, and the other holds the uninstall scritps ?
so the user has to install the uninstall package for it to work ?
if the packages are set with the same name and author, the installer will automatically uninstall the current one b4 installing the new one, so it could uninstall the current script and install the uninstall script files, althou seems abit more hassle for the use than letting the installer do it all for you

Yeah i like that, would make things abit easier, but if the name of the script is long, it could make quite a long filename, ie "Bounty Hunters Guild 2.52 10/1/2006.spk"
althou that does remind me, i should add the data into the packager too

Fantastic 
This could turn out to the the most important addon/script to date especially for all the noobs out there. I.E. me!!!
Can't wait until version 1 released.
Hopefully this will become the standard method for distribution/installation of scripts 
Thanks Cycrow have all your scripts Keep up the first class effort

Another great idea put to practise, nice. Used a similar program for Silent Hunter III mods, called 'Mod enabler'.
I know you're a scriptin' kind of guy , but how about a similar program for mods as well, or include it in this one? It could automatically rename the .dat and .cat files to a number higher than the highest already present i the main X3 folder, and rename them something else if you want a mod disabled.
Not too much work to manually rename those files, but like this it would be handy for newbies and lazy ones like me...
Anyway, thanks for this!
