[Casper] Viewing installed applications.

[Nichols, Jared]

While it may not be integrated into your current reports (as I think Casper would need to be modified) you can probably run a script that does an "LS -R *.app ~/Applications" to a file.  Once you've got it in a file, you can massage it as needed.  It wouldn't give you versions, which may make that useless....

Just a thought.

Does anyone know if there is a way to add an additional 'folder' to
the locations that are reported-on in the Installed Applications List.

We install a standard set of applications on each computer in the
usual place ...   /Applications/
We install non-standard, user requested Apps in an alternate location
in the Users directory...        /Users/'SomeUser'/Applications/

These applications are not reported in the "Installed Applications"
list.

Can this alternate location be added to the client-reporting process
to capture this data?
